: Keith showed up at about 14:30...I'll let him finish the report.

After I got there I had to find the booth.  While I was looking I handed
out Xenu flyers right and left.  Finally found the booth.  It looked busy,
with a number of people standing there.  I wondered up and informed them
that cchr was a scientology front.  Not news, *everyone* standing in front
of the booth was a clam.  One took a xenu flyer and wadded it up.  I
offered another the LRH letter begging for psych help.  Heh, he wadded it,
and tossed it, but later the wad had vanished.  I wonder which one of them
took it home?  It did, after all, have LRH's signature on it. 

The booth people seemed really stressed and since I had not found out 
that the organizers had restricted them I didn't know why.  They 
threatened to have me arrested by the cops.  Well, best way do deal with 
that is to find some cops, which I did.  The cops said as long as the 
flyers were not commercial and I was not obnoxious about it, I could hand 
them out.  I stayed near the cops for while then wondered the length of 
the fair handing out xenu flyers till I ran out.

If I had worked the fair all day, I could have given out a thousand of 
them--easy.  And for all the effect we have had informing people on the 
net, there are an amazing number of people who never touch computer.  A 
lot of them were at the fair today.

Talking with people, the one thing they know about clams is that Travolta 
is one of them.  I was using a rap, travolta and the space cooties to 
good effect in getting people to take a flyer.  I think we need a flyer 
which might run something like this:

   Travolta and the Space Cooties

   No, this is not about the Battlefield earth movie.  Travolta makes his 
   high level in scientology well known.  What you don't hear about is that 
   scientology brainwashes people into thinking they are infested with the 
   spirits of murdered space aliens brought to Earth 75 million years ago by 
   the evil galactic ruler Xenu . . . . . .

Maybe Roland could come out of retirement and take a swat at it.  :-)
