I was on that same damn RPF, from Jul 1996 until Nov 2000.

I secretly, many times, was hoping other people would blow!

Truly, only when people actually made the mental leap of striving to get OUT of that damn system, did the real world freedom opportunities come into my head.

The Hubbard damn system is a whole other world of claustrophobic oppression, that you have to really have a way of just shutting off how foul that system is.

I used to relish the “hard” crappy work, and I just self-re-wired my thoughts about all the crappy conditions.

I’d think, well, this is better than living in the Congo all one’s life without air conditioning and in the tropical jungles of the world.

I used to think, well, someday, when I leave, I won’t have to put up with the RPF crap.

I most hated the fact that other members were actually going to stop us, had we tried to physically walk out.

The threat of the physical restraints, I think the guy who grabbed that lady’s belt was Clark Morton, who wasn’t yet the Bosun, he was just trying to curry favor at that time.

In fact me, chuck beatty, being really a milktoast “worst case” (per the RPF In Charge, what’s his name, Chris Guider, Chris offered “me” to Clark to have Clark twin with, part of Clark’s penance, since if Clark got me through the RPF, that was supposed to be a feather in Clark’s cap, sheesh!)

I mean the idiotic politics of who is “bad” in even that disfunctional authoritarian system, all one had to do was harbor “blow” (escape) intentions, and one immediately became a “blow threat” and security had to be alerted, and you were the lowest of the low during those times.

Boy the whole wierd rules for how to think about your fellow man/woman, in that RPF, all guided by the Hubbard rules for the RPF, it’s a really bad way to spend one’s life.

I escaped mentally, all the time, in my head, by just re-defining and comparing life on the RPF to what I knew to be worse life situations lived by people outside in the war torn and poverty stricken places around the world, where life was truly, and still is, way more truly hell.

Anyways, the RPF, Scientology’s lifetime staff member “prison” “thought reform” system, that supposedly gets a Sea Org member back in good graces to be assigned a job in the normal Sea Org units, it’s problamatic, and it’s always gonna cause horror stories for Scientology.

No two ways about it.

But, I loved those San Bernadino mountains, I loved that “damn” we building out of rocks and loads of concrete we mixed by portably concrete mixers we hired from someplace, I loved the hours of farm work, I loved the animal feeding, and chasing runaway pigs, I loved the “fire break” clearing of brush we did on steep hillsides where the bulldozer couldn’t clear, I loved all the “de-weeding” we did by hand, I loved the potato gathering, the tomato gathering, the green-house building, and if I had been not such a “blow threat” all the time, I would have loved to be part of those teams of RPFers who were sent into the mountains chasing after our fellow RPFers who “blew” (escaped).

Being part of the select team of RPFers sent out to track down those who blew, boy, I have no problem naming names, but I’m starting to forget all the people, I recall about 6 in all, blew, while I was there on the Happy Valley RPF, I think a couple years short of your time, but I then went down to the RPF in LA, and did 2 more years on the RPF in LA.

Sheesh. Well it’s not as bad as living through a world war, but it’s not something anyone would expect of a religion to have going on!

thanks Bruce!

Hear any news of Weibke or Jacqueline?
