Michael was probably talking about getting his 6-month checks for free. 6-month checks are done while on OT 7. Other than these 6-month checks, there is no on-going cost to audit oneself on OT 7 once you get onto the auditing portion and return home. Getting 6-month checks for free is extremely rare, but it&#039;s not a huge deal, because it&#039;s not actually auditing. It&#039;s a just a short sec check. The staff at FLAG really, really don&#039;t want anyone who is auditing on OT 7 to stop auditing on OT 7. Also, there is a chance that instead of giving Michael a free 6-month check, they simply said &quot;don&#039;t worry, you can skip this 6-month check, just keep auditing &quot;. 

But David was in a position of not being able to afford any auditing at all, and he wasn&#039;t OT. He was just doing really poorly in life and had no money.]]></description>

I&#039;m curious as to why the church or DM didn&#039;t give David Pomerantz auditing for free because of his special VIP status?  In Michael Fairman&#039;s coming out story, he said that once he gave all his money for OT VII and donations to IAS and etc, the church allowed him to continue on the level for free because he was a VIP.  Why not do that for Pomerantz too?]]></description>

Tom Cruise is next.  My bet - DM will chew him up and spit him out.  I bet DM can&#039;t stand Tom Cruise - Cruise caused quite a FLAP for his cult.]]></description>

Middle aged. If you&#039;re familiar with how a suppressive person becomes one (supposedly), her emotional growth probably stopped with that bullet was 3 inches away from her face. Frozen in that time of terror. Plus, her lion tamer keeps cracking his whip.]]></description>

Thank you, PlanetJ. Indeed.


Whenever I&#039;m ready to come out from under the radar (when I&#039;m damned good and ready) I&#039;ll tell THAT whole story, and others. Working on some things with some friends right now but that whole story is gonna curl some people&#039;s whiskers.

Oh, and did I mention Pamela Lancaster Johnson? She must be related to Karin is all I can say. She has &quot;bitch&quot; down to a fine art - and artists are her favorite target. 

But that&#039;s another story for another day. 


Thanks again - and to the likers, too.]]></description>
