OK. Posted and mailed.

I got into Scientology in 1971 and did a TRs course. I experienced changes in my
life which I had thought impossible.

When I joined the Sea Org in 1972 and went to Flag it was an incredible
violation of what was written about scn.

Many people were so antagonistic and demanding.

I stayed for 10 years. It got worse.

The personal gains I got from applying scn kept me going.

I left when it seemed too heavy.

I have studied all of the tech vols, all of the HCOPLs through 1982 and studied
over 1000 hours of LRH tapes.

When I was at Flag in the late 70s and early 80s I was officially posted as a
course supervisor. But when the interns would mess up their PCs I was, for quite
a while, the last ditch triple red tag handler.

Currently I help people messed up by the CofS.

But I do it outside their organizations as I view the current CofS as
Suppressive.
