======== Subject: 'High Tech' at the Palo Alto Org, 25.8.99: Criminal Cult Infiltrated! Picketed! From: Don NOTs Date: Thu, 09 Sep 1999 15:25:35 -0700 Message-ID: <090919991525355129%wkohler@gmx.de> Carol Montgomery-Adams, AOL/Netscape Vice President of Marketing for Electronic Commerce, is a shill for the criminal cult of Scientology. She gave a lecture this evening at the Palo Alto Org for a Co$ High Tech Career Night . Her ostensible topic: 'Marketing Strategies for the Internet'. Her real goal: selling the 'Personal Efficiency Course' to an assembled group of twenty-four middle-aged people. I know this to be true because I was there. The ARSCC developed a multi-pronged strategy to enturbulate the clams that involved: 1. Asking the Sun-Netscape PR department whether their Vice President was there in an official capacity; 2. Contacting the SJ Mercury News, who sent an reporter undercover to the lecture; 3. Informing -through back channels- the IP lawyers of the Sun-Netscape Alliance that their clients' trademarks were being used to promote $cientology; 4. Keith Henson picketing the Org for the duration of the lecture (over 2 hours!); 5. Willy Kohler going into the belly of the beast and and attending the lecture. Missions 1-3 successfully accomplished by other ARSCC (wdne) agents, it was show time. Standing outside the Org, I chatted with Keith, pretending not to know him and asking him questions about why he was protesting. When I went to the main entrance, Carol Montgomery-Adams handed me a leaflet telling me that people picketing the Co$ were evil, etc. I told her (and the other two clams standing with her) that Keith told me Scientologists could not say 'Xenu'...was that true? "That's bullshit", said the AOL/Netscape Vice President, "I can say any fucking thing I please." Well, I asked, can you say it? "I'm not going to say that name just to prove a point" she blustered, pointing out that "Jews are not allowed to utter the true name of God." Well then, said I, is Xenu Scientology's God? "Noooooo!" shouted all three in unison. "Look", said Montgomery-Adams, "I can say...(opening her throat)...Xenu. There. I said it. Satisfied?" Laughing, I told her I was, and headed into the Org. If you are wondering how it is possible for an SP5 with his very own Co$ bigot page to waltz into a $cientology Org, I'll tell you. I simply called in advance and registered in the name of yet another '80's rock star. As Johnny Ramone, I walked into the Org, plonked down my $17 admission and had no problems. I have a Co$ reciept to prove it, along with my very own copy of Flatulent Fraud Hubbards' "Ethics and the Conditions".

Keith Henson was outside picketing...] As I entered the Org a pretty, young Ronbot handed me a small leaflet with the words "If you want to know about That Guy..."referring to Henson. The leaflet read: "The people who have come here to protest have absolutely no first hand knowledge of anything they are supposedly here to talk about. They belong to a tiny handful of bigots-- They are picketing in support of their fellows who insisted on breaking the law by violating the Church's copyrights. The Church was forced to take them to court to protect their copyrights. One fellow lost his jury trial last month when it was found he "willfully" violated copyright law. The jury awarded the Plaintiff $75,000. They seek to shift the attention from their own violations of the law by complaining about Scientologists. It is the act of bigots to decide how someone should practice their beliefs and to poke fun at them. They think that "freedom of speech" means "freedom to incite violence and hatred against anyone they disagree with". They protest Scientology because: Scientologists are happy and successful. -The Church of Scientology uses the law to protect its religious teachings and its rights. The protesters disagree with the law. They want to whip up hatred against Scientologists. They do not care that several times over the last two years such hate speak has led to violence against our Churches including the use of bombs and guns. Thousands of Scientologists are involved in anti-drug and community betterment projects to help their community." The Palo Alto Org is located on El Camino Real in a down-market section of Palo Alto. It is a small, two story corner office situated next to an animal groomer and a hair weaving store. What the location lacks in prestige is more than made up by its picketability. Scores of cars drive by every minute and the Org entrance is right by a traffic light. Henson reported a number of waves, honks and thumbs-up during his mammoth two hour picket. Once inside, I paid my $17 dollar admission fee (the reciept reads 'seminar and booklet') and was handed a blue manila folder containing a paperback copy of 'Ethics and the Conditions', a yellow flier exorting me to sign up for the 'Personal efficiency Course', the ubiquitious Personality Test, and a High Tech Career Night questionaire. The questionaire wanted to know my address, phone and email details as well as questions about my career goals and what was preventing me from acomplishing them. folder in hand, I was led upstairs into a small room by yet another Bot-ette. The room contained about thirty chairs and a rostrum. The left wall was the library, a collection of works from El Fraud Hubbard. The opposite wall had small bulletin board with a total of 23 student report graphs tacked to it. Behind the rostrum were tacked six handwritten success stories. The audience was made up of 20-odd people, predominately in their mid-40's. Everyone was forced to fill out the questionaire on the spot. A gentleman seated next to me refused to do so and was told 'he had to'. After he didn't cave under the pressure applied by two different bot-ettes, they gave up. I found out later that the gentleman concerned was most likely a reporter from the San Jose Mercury. The marks seated, the questionaires filled out, it was show time. PART III TO FOLLOW SHORTLY... -- Hot, Hot, Hot: www.xenu-city.net ======== Subject: Part III and Final: 'High Tech' at the Palo Alto Org, 25.8.99: Criminal Cult Infiltrated! Picketed! From: Don NOTs Date: Thu, 09 Sep 1999 16:25:47 -0700 Message-ID: <090919991625473021%wkohler@gmx.de> I settled down in my chair inside the Palo-Alto bOrg to listen to what Carol Montgomery-Adams, AOL/Netscape Vice President of Marketing for Electronic Commerce and $cientology shill had to say on the subject of 'Marketing Strategies for the Internet'. After a brief introduction by a middle-aged man in a cheap, dandruff-flecked suit I assumed was the local cult head, Carol Montgomery-Adams stepped up to the podium. Fresh from a hard day at the office and having just said 'Xenu', she looked every inch the 40-something, frosted hair senior executive she was. She opened her talk by recommending everyone in the audience read "Ethics and the Conditions" by L. Ron Hubbard. She said that she read it a year and a half ago and that it helped her go from Director to Vice President much faster than normally possible. She spoke about how marketing strategies can be related to Scientology: "Nothing will work if you don't believe you can be successful." This helped her deal successfully with 'Bonnie', her boss. She then talked about how the $cientology 'Personal Efficiency Course' would help people accomplish their goals. Her chat lasted about 45 minutes. When she was not talking about $cientology, the thrust of her message was a) having a web site is a good idea and will help your business; and b) it's a good idea to have part of your web site set aside for your best customers. Her talk concluded with a brief question and answer session. "Have you brought a lot of $cientology into Sun?" I asked. "Every marketing plan I work on the first question I ask myself is, 'what kind of [ethics] condition is it in?'" The dandruff-flecked $cieno-boss nodded with approval and smiled. The meeting over, I declined to stick around for coffee and brain-washing. I left immediately, met up with Keith outside and headed off into the California night. The first thing I did once I got home was take a shower. Epilogue: The 'Industry Standard' incorrectly reported that Carol Montgomery-Adams did not talk about Scientology. This is not true. If either Sun or $cientology claim otherwise, they are either uninformed or lying. Don NOTs SP5 -- Hot, Hot, Hot: www.xenu-city.net
