Mainly Admin training here. Seems to be the norm in the SO.
Yes its the norm but I wish it were not.
I had a strange dream about dismantling the SO last night.
Geez it was real

THERE IS NO BRIDGE
Those that have handed over their life, money and family to this cult have followed a dirt path to hell.
It's actually a pony ride that goes in a circle. Naturally, the 'pony' never knows where it's going, but, he's still forced to pay for the stick.
His carrot he gets free, but, he has to supply it himself.

I can highly recommend watching the wonderful movie 'The Bridge on the River Kwai'! - During WW2.. It is about a band of POW's building a magnifiscent bridge for their captors, the Japanese army. The bridge is their survival.. They build it to get food and avoid being killed.. In the end the prisoners are freed and the U.S. Airforce bomb the damned bridge to smithereens!
You don't need to watch for similarities with scientology to enjoy this movie.. Scientologys ethics system and such.. But if you do, then you will have a wonderful sense of accomplisment when that damned bridge is blown up!
It is poetic!
Not nearly as poetic is 'Duck You Sucker', but it's a load of fun and features a bridge being blown up most satisfactorily!
Oh.. And The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a splendid replacement for Hubbards cosmology! - Highly improbable, you might say.. But precisely because it's so staggeringly improbable, it is likely to happen! That is a direct effect of improbability as an applied philosophy!
Even better! - It doesn't cost as much as Hubbards cosmology, yet it is twice as valuable! - 'If it isn't fun, it isn't scientology', they say.. And so it is with The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy.. Only better.. You'll laugh your arse off, or you're reading the wrong book! - You think Hubbards cosmology is mindboggeling? - Whoa! You ain't seen nothing yet!
Compared to The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Scientology is a dead parrot.. Well.. Scientology is a dead parrot even if not compared to anything really..

Hmm.. Quite a 'comm-lag'.. I apologize.. Well, I did post about The Bridge Over River Quai from memory. - Hey, they did build a bridge didn't they!!?? - I do recall with certainty that the movie is very much worth watching! - And I saw recently that it can be had on Blu-Ray. I will acquire one such and refresh my recollection!I think you misunderstod the movie Bridge Over The River Kwai. The prisoners were not freed, they were sent to another camp when the bridge was done. British Commandos blew up the bridge, not the U.S. Airforce, adn the only American involved wasw a sailor, my man William Holden. But Holden and Alec Quiness die in the fight at the end.
