			<description><![CDATA[When I was on the Int RPF in the late 1990s, Rick came out to join us. Rick composes a huge number of the themes for decades, in the movies, for some of the Ron's Journals. I loved one particular theme from one of the early Ron's Journals, and one morning when us RPFers were cleaning up in our dorms, I whistled the tune/theme, intentionally, to see if Rick remembered it. He did. He lit up for a moment, me whistling his tune creation. I loved that little melody, I whistle it even today at times. Rick Cruzen, if you ever see this someday, THANKYOU Rick for your music work. LRH said that a tune will reverberate down the years, and it is true. Melodies DO stick in my mind. Rick is so far from a criminal and SP, he's such a mellow guy, he's unfortunately the perfect punching bag for a DM type bully. No body can stop a person's artistic creations from having an emotional impact. Thanks again Rick. Thanks for this story and thanks Steve Hall for allowing this dialogue. Chuck Beatty]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Misha~~ There is such a thing as a Tyrant, An Abuser, A Dictator, A Sadist, A Bully, An SP. This type of identity does not have to be connected to anyone to have such traits. DM does not have PTS traits, he has SP traits loud and clear, a self-evident truth as described by the many who have experienced him.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Just want to throw it out there: could it be that he is a PTS to somebody higher up? Being that crazy and obvious is more of a PTS trait. Is he connected to the government, IRS, any deals he made to put him in a PTS situation? Does anybody know?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thoughtful You absolutely nailed the Tommy Davis performance. A recently departed SO member made this VIDEO [censored]://www.xenutv.com/blog/?p =4620 It captures in images your comments about Tommy Davis above. Someone Emailed me the link and said that the video was made by someone previously in Cine in Gold ! Yikes !]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[W&P, Great article and very spot on. One of the Super Power rundowns has to deal with predicting the future as well. Very obvious that DM has not had it. He seems to be more careful now though, hiding behind seemingly impenetrable walls, sheets during idle org openings, security cordons at events, as extensive damage control actions.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[You can also see this in the way Tommy Davis smiles smugly to himself. For example on the recent ABC News "Four Corners" broadcast from Australia, Tommy was asked if he put private investigators onto the media he stammered and said he wouldn't know anything about that. But actually he was smiling smugly all the while, and overdoing it. I think he wanted everyone to know that yes, he has that "power"... demonstrating your point that the DM culture is so inverted (which is the right word)... so inverted, they think "that's giving it to them!" every time they do something senseless, brutal or cruel. While the rest of the world is horrified, their reality is so unreal they think they are setting a good example. They think they're eventually going to bring the world "up" to their reality level. Yet the world actually is so much higher, the average individual needs a telescope to see down that far. Another example was with DM's interview on Nightline years ago. He bragged and said he won a Grammy. Actually, the Grammy went to the interviewer, and DM was widely regarded as a freak for the way he acted. LRH said that out ethics people don't perceive the real world. They perceive a delusional world, which they themselves create around them. You hit the nail right on the head.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I sometimes wonder if DM secretly thrills to the fact that his actions are being reported to the general public. The legend of his bullying and sociopathic behavior might work to keep people who are IN cowed in terror; perhaps he is so self-aggrandized that he thinks these stories prove he is a force to be reckoned with to those on the outside. These stories are so emotionally wrenching. My heart goes out to all who started with the best of intentions, with such hope and energy, and then suffered so much.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thought Provoking Another Heartbreaking story. Even worse when Parents send her back to the SO she is escaping from. One day I hope she posts and tells her story for all to read. Even your synopsis is quite a read. Heber was roughed up badly in the SP Hall according to an earlier post of Marty on his Blog. COB took out anyone who was popular, who others looked up to, who threatened his total 100% dominance...witness what he did to former CO FSO Debbie Cook.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[W and P, You got me going now. It is hardest when someone you know gets caught up in the traps, then the rage kicks in. Sadly, I knew the sweetest girl (literally) who became a friend of Heber's at a young age. She was the brightest most enthusiastic Scientologist I'd seen in a child. She joined the SO at a very young age (parents, both staff and heavily connected to the church organizations outside of the SO). When I first heard of Heber being in the hole, I thought of her and knew that she would be crushed. About two months later, I heard that she was out and learned about her tragic story. She was working in HCO and was slated for GOLD but along the way ran into her own counterfeit dreams. Though she never worked directly with DM she worked on his pet money making projects. She received abuse that is not uncommon in these threads and more...think young female. Even when she tried to get out telling her family her horror stories, her parents were so blinded by management that they sent her back into the SO never even considering that their daughter might be telling the truth. The next time she left the SO, she didn't go to them. They are still estranged as far as I know. Her experience was so horrible that she no longer has any desire to be a Scientologist. Good people systematically being erased is what the future holds for those who believe the lies that DM tells.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Good to see you writing! I think RJ has made a good point about DM's behavior. His is a long pattern of abuse, not a foolish solution to a problem like postulate checks. DM is thinking in futures, very calculatedly. As a staff member and former public I would never have supported this type of leadership had I known it was occuring. More people need to look. The tech is wonderful but one person gaining freedom while another is enslaved is simply unacceptable.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Paolo~~ Sue Wilhere INT BASE captive tells St. Petersberg Times "David Miscavige IS Scientology." The threesome doing INT BASE damage control Hanusilli, Marion Meisler/Dendui and Mike Sutter prattle the same slogan ~~ "David Miscavige IS Scientology". David Miscavige is at the HELM At the Helm of Scientology's Explosive Growth says the fluff and froth of Freedom Mag. DM is straight out of Hollywood Casting. You can't make this stuff up....]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thank you RJ. It is the law enforcement term called RECKLESS ENDANGERMENT. It is a 3d concept of putting others in Danger. The general definition of “Reckless” conduct is conduct that exhibits a culpable disregard of foreseeable consequences to others from the act or omission involved. I see utter disregard of future consequences by DM's present time actions.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Good article W&P. Yes Miscavige being an A-1 criminal doesn't think of consequences. Ron also discusses this in an HCOB by the same name but I think there is another factor and that is that David Miscavige is intentionally wrecking the subject and good name of Scientology by his actions which could be the reason he why he doesn't care if his overt acts are reported or not. In fact by example he is showing the world how "dangerous" the subject is. In other words the guy is the poster child for Scientology's enemies.]]></description>
