The FZAO deserves respect regardless of whether or not they
are practicing "standard" LRH tech. What the CoS really NEEDS is some
compatition, and Tom's crew stepped up to the plate. The members of
his group are there on their own self-determinism.  The group does not
practice the evil methods that the Church of Scientology does. In the
absence of such evil practices,  this group should be encouraged and
respected.  While I may not agree with all the different beleifs
scattered throughout the freezone, I think they are all 10 times
better then the Church of Scientology.

The issue of whether the FZAO is practicing standard "tech" is
a SENSITIVE issue, and some enturbulation should be expected to come
about when talking about this.  With that in mind, someone trying to
communicate about this should jump in the water EXPECTING it to be a
little cold, and perhaps try to phrase or word the communication in a
high Theta fashion.  After all, after all that good hard work and
initiative the FZAO has taken,  an inquiry into such a subject may
seem like an ATTACK. Its like when I was 10 and I woke up early and
cleaned my whole room to make my aunt happy, but then when my aunt
walked in to inspect my room my sister said "You didnt wash the
windows, did you?" Needless to say I felt my sisters communication as
an attack, since I spent all that effort to clean my room to impress
my aunt, and my sister says this. Perhaps my sister was jealious or
something,  is trying to compete with me, she had just cleaned the
bathroom.  When really,  my aunt would probably be happy with BOTH of
us and no compatition was neccesary, and especially no UNFRIENDLY
compatition.  While a little friendly compatition could be a
productive thing, my sister did not have to say that.  Everyone wins
if compatition is ethical, honest and professional.  You dont see
Pepsi commercials where Coke is attacking them and their PR statements
do you? Pehaps a few commercials have the theme that Pepsi is BETTER
usually in an entertaining way, but you dont see any commercials where
Pepsi is ATTACKING coke and dedicating the whole commercial effort to
DEGRADE Coke. In fact, most of the current Pepsi commercials merely
promote Pepsi and dont even talk about Coke at all. And as such these
commercials are very entertaining in recent years. Its STILL
compatition, but its at a higher level. In another good examples, look
at those Nike basketball commercials, I like those. They dont attack
other sneaker companies directly. And those commercials are very
inexpensive to make to, those basketball ones with the fancy
basketball dribblers and the hip-hop beat in the background.  And dont
get me started on those 1 800 CALL ATT commercials, those comercials
dont ATTACK any other service usually, and they are sometimes
entertaining, and they are very EFFORTLESS and INEXPENSIVE to make.

The various freezone groups should resect eachother at maintain a
level of integrity and proffessionalism to keep the compatition
ethical and healthy. We shouldnt throw shit in other peoples
backyards,  we shouldnt look in eachothers yards for shit, and we try
not to make it look like we are looking for shit in other peoples
yards to talk about. We shouldnt be interested in shit at all.  Using
this principle, I have been invited to many barbecues, even when the
persons garage sale is in compatition with mine.

If your going to use other peoples shit to profit from, make it the
CoS's, and many might leave the CoS after you expose their shit. And
if you decide not to capitalize off of other peoples shit, thats fine
with me as well,  and I wouldnt neccesarily think your in apathy about
shit. I would just think you want nothing to do with shit, and just
want to promote your own garage sale.  Then I am comming over for the
barbecue, please put some extra cheese on my burger.
