			<description><![CDATA[Hi there Lise. What a pleasant surprise to run into you here! I remember you from the TTC at the AO in Sydney. I left Canberra staff the year after you but of course never knew you had left. You never hear about these thing when you are in Borgdom. Life is great for me out too!! Freedom! All the best.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Coming to this website is a more delicious, refreshing cup of spring water each time!! My disconnection with the church has either already occurred as a result of its actions/inactions toward me or is incomplete because it is perceived that I must make an overt act to complete it. In either case I do not sense that I will experience any separation anxiety. This is entirely due to my discovery of all you wonderful people who really want to help others. I signed up as public in the early '80's and completed pre-golden age TRs which was mind blowing success for me. Since then it has been nothing but church-made obstacles. I remember early on "nattering" about the staff running around screaming at each other; found myself running a confessional with no explanation of what was going on. The last time I went to Ethics it was my origination. I had done something that I knew the church would not appreciate and I was even then not allowed on training lines. All they could do was to try to put me into a lower condition that that which I identified as correct. Well, I could go on. Thanks for the opportunity and thanks for banding together to create a true group. I can't wait to join up with you guys. Manfred Mayer]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I understand exactly what you are saying. These are questions I have repeatedly asked myself since resigning from the Church. I certainly can't answer for everyone but for me personally I can. I read Joe Howards article on the GAT and this gave me the confidence that the original idea was good. Improving auditor quality. Secondly, I was extremely lucky that most of my initial supervision and support came from 2 Class VI's here in Brisbane. One a C/S and one an auditor(pre gat) and I learnt very early that it is the auditors warmth and care and comm cyle etc that underlies everthing. So I did not get into what I see the GAT's main problem which is the lack of true warmth, interest and care and quite robotic in some. My main problem now is the discovery of how much the acual Bridge has changed and I have nothing to compare it with at the moment. So I can't wait for friendsoflrh.org to bring out "The destruction of the grade chart". I am fairly confident if I start auditing again in the field it will be ok. There is a website I was directed to by a friend which gives solutions for field auditors to get help with their tech. At the end of the day,Its really about me getting my comm lines out there and making sure I am with the right people. I have to say that even though I knew DM was bad its still quite overwhelming on just how bad across the boards he really is, and I'm still coming to terms with it all myself. As far as I'm concerned the term GAT trained in front of my training level means nothing. Its an invented term and is squirrel. An auditor is an auditor and LRH has made it crystal clear that an auditor training number is what gives the standard of the auditor. Lise]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Lise....first off, good on ya for courage and willingness to take a stand for independent thinking, observation and action. Second, in your other post on this site, it says, "Lise is a highly-skilled auditor and fully-interned Golden Age of Tech Class IV C/S." I have been watching the breakaways from the "official" CofS since Marty's first postings last February. I was wondering if successfully trained tech persons who were GAT trained will be using that training as an Independent as well? Since the general position appears to be GAT is an alteration of the Tech, what happens to persons such as yourself? What is your view on whether GAT was even necessary and was any of your tech training pre-GAT, too? Thanks for considering answering. I figure if for those like myself who got in over 25 years ago and saw GAT as a major violation of the drilled-in policy of not altering LRH, came to get services from an Independent such as you (assuming you'll continue auditing or CSing), what might we expect? Thanks again!!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Quite right. I for one am determined to flow power to these guys. Steve, Dan, Marty et al have never missed a beat when it came to offering me sage advice or help on my own journey out of Miscavology. Heroes is not too big a word, it is very apt. When the dust has settled and sanity has truly prevailed these guys can be very very proud of what they started.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Lise, I like your feistiness very much. It's interesting to me to note the themes in your article and similar articles. Loss of individuality, and the regaining thereof, is a theme. Likewise with freedom. Who would ever think that the Bridge to Total Freedom would be paved with compliance? RJ, to "dob" on someone, or "dob them in", is to tell tales or to report their wrongdoings. It applies to kids dobbing on each other to parents. And we use it sometimes to talk about dobbing someone in to the cops. To be "sprung", is to have your secret brought to light, or to be "found out". Once the jack-in-the-box has been sprung, it's not going back in.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi "You Yanks", Sorry forgot the language barrier. dobbed in: To tell on (like kids at school telling the teacher you were smoking) Sprung: caught out doing something you shouldn't have been doing. ethics from my observation is the prime tool used to control with this "version of Scn" and its shocking. Thanks for giving me a good laugh RJ and say hello to Randy and Sheila for me :-)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Nice job Lise! I, too, used the Borg analogy all the time for a while. Funny how similar we can all be with our observations of Miscavology, yet at the same time, thank God, we're all totally individual. Joe Howard has been an invaluable comm line for me as well. Thoughtful and the rest.... these guys may be modest about it, but, they're becoming the new heroes of Scn. They know how to help the newly departed get through the ugly period of "Brain-Drying" that we all must go through. And they know exactly what they're doing. Pretty generous, I'd say.

			<description><![CDATA[Taz dear, you're gonna have to translate "dobbed" for us yanks. I sorta get an idea from the context but then I could be wrong. Also "sprung" here means to release from confinement but this is not the sense I'm getting in your article. Anyway despite the language barrier (it took me a while to figure out that Barbie in Oz wasn't a Mattel toy and what all those smirks were about when I mentioned my friends Randy and Sheila) I did get the general gist. The borg is such an apt description of the current organization these days. In fact my wife and I (whose name isn't Sheila, by the way)started using the term ourselves but never thought of using Sea Borg but it fits. As they seem to be following lil'Davy's similar to "hugh" "command intention" blindly into oblivion. I do know the experience of writing what I'd come to call the "boomerang" KR, where I'd end up being the one being "investigated" and "handled" instead of the interested party. An interesting [censored]enomenon that occurred to any whistle blower inside the Church. My theory is that the deal worked out with the USG included handling dissension in the ranks in the same manner as Government agencies do. Just a theory mind you, though becoming a tax reporting agency for the IRS isn't but that's another story for another time. I also noted that "ethics" has become more obnoxious these days. Before they used to ask the C/S and Auditor before they'd initiate any ethics handling other than a condition assignment. Now they have them writing up O/Ws and the sentiment, seems to be right out of the movie 'The Treasure of the High Sierra' slightly para[censored]rased "C/S! We don' need no stinkin' C/S!". So much for the HCOBs 'Ethics and the C/S', 'Illegal Auditing' and 'Off Line Case Actions'. In fact I think the sentiment has gone beyond that to what I've read between the lines in lil Davy's turgid speeches in "Auditors! We don' need no stinkin' auditors!".Same for Div VI or staff in general. According to him a neo-national socialist architectural edifice he calls an "Ideal Org" is supposed to do all that. The public according to hu...er I mean Dave are just supposed to "push play and cognite". All said I'm glad you're among us here, Lise we can still use more good auditors out here. Welcome Aboard!]]></description>
