On 13 November 2012, our domains, gerryarmstrong.ca and xenu.ca, were hacked, which has necessitated a rebuild of our Canadian sites. This work is ongoing.
As a consequence of the hack, the links to gerryarmstrong.ca in this thread no longer work. For legal and other reasons, here is the updated link to Gerry Armstrong's declaration in support of an online form counter-notification to the bad faith claim made by filmmaker Markus Thoess that Gerry infringed his copyright by publishing a video entitled “Mike Rinder Black PR’s Gerry Armstrong and Graham Berry." Thoess had given Gerry the video and permission to publish it. The Scientologists and their supporters got Thoess to act against Gerry.

Mike Rinder could do is all a favour and let us know who were the two OSA plants working in the LMT. What are the chances?

Ya know, I watch these videos now of Rinder, Buns of Wrath and Gerry and I gots to tell ya Folks...ain't one them has really changed from when I knew them "back in the days" that I can tell.
Rinder was smug, calculating, chameleon-like, consummate BS artist when I knew him on the Apollo.
Rathbun was a hyper-aggressive, duplicitous, self-absorbed show-boater when I was around him in the latter '70's.
Gerry was an intelligent, pragmatic, thoroughly decent and enjoyable person to be around when we were shipmates.

Yep and he was when he worked for Vicki Az as her communicator as well. but he also had a "hail fellow and well met" kind of salesman demeanor that was OK. I liked Mike for the most part.
Looking back now I think he could have been the prototype for the character "Creedy" in V for Vendetta.Rathbun was a hyper-aggressive, duplicitous, self-absorbed show-boater when I was around him in the latter '70's.
Never knew Gerry - but he has my respect and admiration for what he did.Gerry was an intelligent, pragmatic, thoroughly decent and enjoyable person to be around when we were shipmates.
