			<description><![CDATA[Thanks Chris. Yeah - actually the OSS was a total recall. In fact, I have never looked it up until just now to see how accurate the recall was. You're right - I had the name wrong, but everything else was spot on, including their involvement in infiltrating the Nazi SS. Thanks.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[But Nomad does realize that OSS stands for Office of Strategic Services right? Did the initials OSS come up in the past life recall? If so that's amazing.]]></description>

			<title>RJ\'s Comment</title>

			<description><![CDATA[Good points RJ. Once again David Miscavige "one uped" LRH and did it his way. There simply cannot be any competition in that man's world. All roads have to lead to him. The fact that Jeff Hawkins was creating a boom - well - he just had to kill Jeff off - couldn't be. You know, in 2003 or maybe 2004, John Travolta's wife went on one or two major TV talk shows and told the story of how the Purification Program saved her son's life. She mentioned the book Clear Body Clear Mind. I heard from someone at the time, who was right on the heart beat of that scene, who described in detail to me how, following those shows, the CBCM sales rocketed into a highest ever sales, through mostly bookstores, not even orgs. And... here's the best part... people all over the United States started going to spas and saunas and doing the regimen in the back of the CBCM book. Apparently, Purif groups were springing up and people were contacting the Church to get direction on how to start Purif centers. it was literally a runaway boom over night. What happened? Someone put the brakes on and said that it "could be" a liability to the Church if these groups weren't "controlled". Short and sweat of it - the boom was killed. Imagine LRH doing that in the 50's with all the Dianetics groups springing up and trying to put them under control because of potential "liability". Where would Scn be today. This is the DM mentality at work. He has injected enough fear into the group that no one wants the backlash - so instead of just letting Scn expand, we have a nice "controlled, peaceful crowd that is reined in whenever needed." Nice. Great comments RJ. Really - it opens the eyes to see all the different pieces of information come together. Truly - the multiple viewpoint system at work as LRH says.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Amazing - of course that aspect of the Dianetics campaign was submerged. Jeff had it spot-on. I know from my own work with raw public in recent years that the whole "depression" and "get rid of your negative mind" button was a NEGATIVE button for raw public. People I dealt with routinely were interested in Dianetics because of what it could DO for them and to gain MORE understanding. Typically speaking, the people who were depressed or wanted to get "rid" of something were so low toned or already in psychiatric camps that Dianetics was almost out of reach for them as they wanted the "pill" that would solve it all. They were actually the small percentage of people who expressed an interest. I even tried to write this up and tell people that the Dianetics campaign was off the mark. It fell on deaf ears. If Jeff Hawkins had been allowed to continue his campaign, Scientology would be actually expanding. Great data Thoughtful!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I was at the Complex when Jeff's Book 1 Campaign took off. Despite the Christofferson suit and the bad press that accompanied it. We were overwhelmed with new public flooding into LA Org which caused a domino effect on all other PAC area Orgs. In other words while all "non essential" staff were over in Portland at Freedom Park. Those of us in Tech and Qual with a skeleton crew of "essential" admin staff were being inundated with public directly due to Jeff's efforts. Also for the second time in history DMSMH hit the top ten list on the NY Times best sellers! We were heading towards another boom that thanks to what I see now as Miscavige's meddling went bust. About KTL/LOC the fact is they were part of the NWC's program to train auditors so they could deliver Super Power based on the World Out of Com Eval or WOOC. Not meant as an action for all staff and public. It was typical of Miscavige's one size fits all mentality that he'd broadly release this rundown to cut across the usual actions as he has done continually since.]]></description>

			<title>What else happened in 1990</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/what-happened-chapter-five.html#comment-555</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Another facet on the decline of orgs was DM's destruction of the Dianetics book campaign in 1990, and smearing of the man who engineered it: Jeff Hawkins. In the wink of an eye, Miscavige put it out that Jeff had "lied to LRH" which was itself a total lie. We had studied the LRH traffic many times and Jeff told LRH the truth which had to do with a survey LRH advised done to determine if "get rid of it" was a proper statement to make in regards the reactive mind. Jeff found that the public had a negative reaction to "get rid of it" -- their mindset was that they didn't want to get rid of anything. Jeff found that what the public wanted was to "learn to control it" and he told LRH that. LRH amended his directions for where to take the Dianetics campaign and the campaign was a huge success. One has to keep in mind that no one ever ordered Jeff to do this campaign. He got fed up with bureaucracy at Flag and the lack of any kind of dissemination to new public. Jeff traveled to LA and set up his own pirate dissemination unit under the radar. He won the backing of some key executives and called it the "Strategic Books Marketing Unit" or SBMU for short. This was in the early 1980s when church management was in turmoil. New people started coming into orgs. That lifeblood started a long, long uptrend until David Miscavige pulled all funding for Dianetics marketing in 1990. It happened, I was there. And Jeff writes about it in his memoirs Counterfeit Dreams. Simultaneously, Miscavige was pushing out his KTL. So Dianetics was dropped and KTL was pushed in heavily, also grossly violating all the technology LRH wrote for SSOs (Staff Section Officers in the Qual Division) about how to program a staff member for his post. LRH says in HCOPL Tech on page 284 of OEC Vol 0, that false tech produces a confusion. And confusion is all David Miscavige has produced for years. Again, I want to compliment the Nomad on his magnificent analysis.]]></description>
