Here we have some more mangled english from our friend Edy Lundeen.
The consistency with which this horrific grammar spews forth from the bubble confirms that it is not merely a fluke. There is some endemic lack of understanding of the english language within the church of scientology. Perhaps the Shermanspeak is rubbing off on them?
What is amazing about this is that they are actually promoting how terrible the existing Solo auditors are. I think….
It is pretty hard to decipher what she is saying at all.
But the funnest line is making sure everyone is prepared for the rush of people on or about to start Solo who want to know whether they can do the Purification Rundown or the Survival Rundown. It’s like heretics asking the Grand Inquisitor if they can go back on the rack for a little more torture. Or perhaps just a quick dip in boiling oil… I am sure they are lining up around the block to find out if they can pay to slide a snake back to the bottom of the game and roll the dice again to see if they can progress to the top.
The Scientology version of snakes and ladders is all snakes and no ladders.

Subject: The New Solo Auditor Course!Hello!
I wanted to give you some Briefings on what is happening in the Flag AO, on Solo Training lines, since the release of the Golden Age of Tech Phase II.
There is a New Solo Auditor Course, a new Solo Auditor Part II Course and a new Advanced Solo Auditor Course (OT VI Part A)!
The changes are that on each of the Solo Auditor Courses, we now have 13 Basic Books. And there is NO TESTING on either course!
Here is some examples:
A public completed the Solo One Course at Flag on Saturday at 1:20pm and on Tuesday she will be completing the Solo Part II.
Between last night and this morning, we now have our first 5 Advanced Solo Auditor Course (New OT VI Part A) completions!
2 of them completed in 12 days, (after the Basics Books were completed)!!!!
The other 3 took exactly 2 weeks, (also after the Basics Books were completed)!
DATA FOR YOU AS AN FSM:
The Advance Solo Auditor Course is only available at Flag. It is what we used to call OT VI Part A – OT VI Part A, B and C still remain as they always have. Part B the Confidential Theory, and Part C, where you learn the Auditing Techniques of Solo NOTs.
If you are an off the Level Solo NOTs Auditor, you can go to Flag and do the Advance Solo Auditor Course, on a courtesy invoice.
In order to start the New Advanced Solo Auditor Course, all you have to do is arrive.
The course is taking 12 to 15 days. Trained Auditors are doing it in 3 to 8 days.
The results and successes are legion!
“During this course, I got so much more certainty on how the e-meter works, how to use it and what I have to do in my own Solo session. And, surprisingly, I got more certainty about myself. I now know I can keep my TR 0 in and not only in session, but also in life.
I am an auditor and as an auditor I take care of my pc- ME!
I found that the drills in the New Solo I GAT II course are easier to duplicate and make totally 100% sense, and that make them very easy to do. Just read the drill, TR 0, TR 1, do the drill, START! DONE!
And also the simulator drills; they are totally to the point, just the thing I need, and the drills gave me total certainty to be able to do a good session.
This course has bought me up the tone scale. From “fear” to Tone 40! From “Can I do it a little bit better” to “LETS GO!”
“My supervisors are the best. They spotted immediately when I had a little stop, and they gave me whatever I needed to be able to continue at once. And I am very proud to be the first to finish this course- GOLDEN AGE OF TECH PHASE II SOLO I!!” – G.M.
There is an exact line that has been issued, for those who have questions or want to know if they can do the Purification Rundown or the Survival Rundown. Selectees who have these questions should be referred to us, and we will assist them to get their questions answered.
Call us or come in with your selectees for an interview!
Love,

Dear Emily,
“Why I wonder do any of you continue to comment here at all.”
Sorry…but we don’t know why you wonder. It’s perfectly obvious to us, why comments are made. As-is-ness occurs through exact time-place-form-event, which is precisely why your comments are being ridiculed and why you’ll experience no relief.
“Rinder is no more to be trusted than the snake at the top of his post.”
Hmm, snakes are actually quite predictable and are forever getting a bad rap and being associated with, well, idiots like you Emily. They are quite trustworthy in their actions and can be depended upon to do exactly what they were intended to do – survive well, while being in valence. Something, which you are not.
“Mike is one of nature’s pathological liars,always was and always will be.”
An unfortunate comparison, Emily. I daresay, Nature has never produced a liar, nor will she ever. A Beaver never lies about why it built a dam. A Panther never lies about why it killed the deer, nor make excuses for its actions. It’s simply surviving. Not even a virus lies about its desire to co-opt another organism – it just does it. Only man or woman lies and it’s obvious, you’ve gotten pretty good at it.
“Drop it Mike you’re convincing no one. Not here, not now, and not ever.”
Au contraire, mademoiselle. Mike has effectively “convinced” many people to trust their own instincts, Believe in themselves and have faith in their own observations. Unlike you pet, we have evolved.
“If it can be said you are without a doubt one of the most twisted and prolific users of smoke and mirrors it has ever been my misfortune to come across.”
Interesting choice of words …. smoke and mirrors appears to be defined as follows –
… something that seems good but is not real or effective and that is done especially to take attention away from something else that is embarrassing or unpleasant.
So Dearest Emily, what have you done that is embarrassing or unpleasant that prompted you to wrong target Mike? It’s alright, you can trust us to be discreet, we won’t tell ….Him.
Odd
Hallie Jane says
I’m convinced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well said Odd Thomas.
Pepper says
Emily is probably an OSA watcher, or a public who confessed her sin of reading the internet (Mike’s Blog for one) and is doing her Liability Formula. I don’t think it delivered quite an “effective blow” here but it might look good on paper. Hope she can get the signatures she needs so she doesn’t have to buy $20,000 worth of Basics or donate a couple of new meters, or whatever the MAA can cook up for her.
Pepper says
Hello Aqua,
Yes, a “refresher” is the commonly used term for the six month check now and has been for a while.
Jane Doe says
it started out being called the “Six month check” which is short for sec check. Then they thought that was out pr so they changed it to the lighter phrase, “refresher” to make you think that after all the sec checking you’ll come out of there totally refreshed.
Miss Tia says
I wonder what a courtesy invoice is too. I am ‘assuming’ it’s just that they’ll bill you later without a credit check?
And wow, after how many years they’ve finally learned to work an e-meter?! Do they even realize what they are saying? (I know, they don’t.)
Espiritu says
Emily, do you have the ability to notice that every single thing you just said was a broad negative generality about Mike’s alleged BEINGNESS???
You did not mention one specific bad thing he might have Done. Did you?
Now, pick up an ethics book and look up the 12 characteristics of an Anti-Social Personality. Get what I am saying? YOU are the one are behaving like that.
See, it goes like this: If you would want your viewpoint to have any believability for sane and intelligent beings you would have to give a complete report here giving TIME, PLACE, FORM, and EVENT. But you can’t do that, can you? So what does a good-hearted, sane and intelligent person do when they realize that they have made a mistake and have treated someone unjustly? Can you do that?
Flexible Flyer says
To Emily:
Here i sit broken hearted.
Came to flag,
and now re-started.
checkingin says
I do know if you are on 7 you get to do the new solo courses free or as a “courtesy”- funny in itself if you think about it. But you have to get one of them thar’ newfangled meters to do the training and spend a chunk of time down there.
Sejanus says
So much hurt to the English language there.
It is bad enough that LRH had to try to unravel the language to begin with and his reassigning of definitions to words.
Jose Chung says
Dear Mike,
Great post, the picture of the dead Whale on the giant conveyor belt,it’s one thousand words.
Never knew about snakes and ladders game.
Keep up the good work.
Even if you are a minority of one
the truth is still the truth.

Pepper says
Those poor OTVII’s. I’m hearing word from a friend right now at Flag that they all have to redo the Solo Course and”other things” she won’t exactly say. This is a highly trained person and she said she has “a ton to do”. She’s been there way beyond Edy’s time frame to complete. Anyone who returned for their “refresher” (fleecing) is being ordered to stay and cannot leave. This has caused a traffic jam on the lines there now. Right at Christmastime too.
I don’t know about a “courtesy invoice” but I’ll ask her if she had to pay and if so, for what. She’s trying not to say much and be upbeat, keeping it close to the vest. Probably afraid of the MAA’s while at Flag and wants to come home some day!
Aquamarine says
What is a “refresher”? Is that the RCS term for the 6 month sec checK?
The Oracle says
Snakes and ladders! 65 years later, all the money work effort sacrifice and P.R, flaps, for every two OTVll comps the Church has made an S.P.! 4,762 S.P.’s in the data base, and it looks as if many, I mean many, names have been with held from being entered.

Gus Cox says
Still in much?
Lordburg12 says
Emily, stop wasting your own time, get a life and troll elsewhere. They would love you on Ortega’s blog or ESMB.
Aquamarine says
She’s not ESL? Such awful grammar, so little time.
Still on your side says
Thank you Mike for allowing this comment to go through. It is always instructive to see how passionately OSA defends ….nothing. There is absolutely no substance to this comment. What is “Emily” trying to do? Convince people who are commenting here not to comment? Educate us never-ins that they are right and you are wrong? Seriously, this comment fails at education, fails at intimidation, fails at attacking you, and fails to even vent Emily’s rage. I bet she was angrier after writing this than before. I think she would have gotten more out of sticking her tongue out and telling you that you have cooties.
Hallie Jane says
Leaving the radical church remedies cooties so Mike’s ok. Whew!
1984 says
Emily, just pass the message that Davie better hang on to his rods real tight. A storm is brewing.
The Oracle says
And Miss “Emily” is all sugar and spice?

NeverClear says
Wow. What got your knickers in a twist?
NeverClear says
By the way, nice grammar Emily. I suppose you and Edy studied English together?
Hallie Jane says
Lol!
Andrew McGowan says
As funny as I find this, I have to say that it seems obvious to me, that his first language isn’t English. His name, and it’s country of origin, might also be a give away to his misuse of syntax and grammar.
Black Panther says
“Edy is a Class XII trained auditor”. Really? Well then she needs to go back and re-study her HQS course – you know, the one where a person learns about ARC. I was in our local FO (Joburg – 2008) trying to get my 2d to Flag. While I was going over prices with our local FSC, she was muttering in the background about how my 2d should to go to Flag, because he needed to have his ethics sorted out. She had demanded a FREE FAVOUR from him and was pissed because he hadn’t dropped everything to come running to her aid immediately, instead telling her he would fit it in when he had a gap. (Note: He owned his own company, was very busy working FOR MONEY, was a public and was not obliged to do ANYTHING for her – especially not for free).
I was so upset about the incident I wrote it up. Fat lot of good that did, though. She probably got a commend when she went back to Flag for her excellent “DM valence cold chrome steel” reserve. Needless to say, my 2d never went to Flag. In retrospect, I should probably thank her.
1984 says
Edy will discover that the world is round, and karma is a bitch.
Or, as they say, “what goes around, comes around”.
crislandivar says
Hi Black Panter, I remember that cycle, I was with Edy at that time. Is good to see you here. Please write me an email to [email protected]
I know Edy, she normally probably is not sleeping because of so much presure of money right now that she write this type of emails.
I was in the Sea Org, at Flag and I know the FSC AF Steve Brown very well also.
Good to see you here.
War Horse says
Dan K,
I remember those Survival Rundown posters VERY well. Never could understand why anyone would use an Indian with a bow and arrow as a symbol of survival.
Surprised he wasn’t wearing a felt hat while a dodo bird flew by.
Dan Koon says
Wait. The Survival Rundown? You mean that course assembled by Melanie Seidler Murray in 1980 to follow the Purif Rd and which LRH was very critical of when he found out what it contained when he came back on the lines in late 1981? That Survival Rundown? The one that was promoted with a poster of an Indian about to shoot an arrow at a buffalo that LRH said was wrong because Indians did not survive? That Survival Rundown? Talk about discovering lost out-tech. DM has really outdone himself this time if that is the same rundown.
nomnom says
Dan, Could you clarify how a major rundown could be released without LRH’s knowledge?
Formost says
The SRD is composed primarily of the “Survival Rundown Series’ in HCOB/PL form and was written up by Melanie per LRH’s instructions. He never cancelled the course but criticized it’s marketing angle.
Tara says
Why I not be surprised?
SILVIA says
Yes, does not make sense specially if Edy is a Class XII trained auditor; I am telling you, they are so, so exhausted that have lost the concept of writing correctly.
Now, re this ” on a courtesy invoice”, it simply means they are trying to recover Solo NOTS Auditors who are off the level and I assume this number of ‘off the level’ has increased. As of 2002 there were 2,000 off the level, so if things are straight up and vertical, they may have reached 2,500 or more.
Chrissie W says
“If you are an off the Level Solo NOTs Auditor, you can go to Flag and do the Advance Solo Auditor Course, on a courtesy invoice.”
Huh!? What exactly is a”courtesy invoice”? If the Bridge was messed up in the first place, I paid money for it, then it should all be re-done on a “courtesy invoice”, right?
I can’t wait, let me call a few of my “off the level” friends and family, we can make it a big party! Ugh!
thetapotata says
With all the emphasis on how fast delivery now is. I’m guessing that someone came up with that as a WHY for crashed stats. A small piece of a much bigger WHY, I daresay. Not the least of which is people waking up on the Internet to the true nature of David Miscavige and the truth behind his evil regime.
Live Zombie says
Ya, a “courtesy invoice”, right.
But first Chrissie you have to take time off work, unless you are rich, pay for the plane to Flag and back , pre-pay for Accommodations, then get back on the New-New-New Ot 6 for free?
And that will take how long? Months?
I don’t know what it will take to wake some people up.
Chrissie W says
haha LZ! Nothing is EVER free in Scientology. When I used to do recoveries, I was supposed to route people for a free ARCX session, which of course would end the person with a “tip” for their next auditing. Usually the people had something in their life that they really needed help with and it was always you need $$$ amount of intensives.
TP Yes! I have already heard this is the “why” for people falling off VII. In fact it’s the “why” for everyone everywhere.
Hallie Jane says
It’s the WTF courtesy invoice. Now that the technology has been, yet again, altered, their so called results are truly meaningless.
Paul J Salerno says
Thank you for your # Edy, the Nigerian telemarketers will be calling soon.
Jane Doe says
Paul, Love it! Please Please please DO deliver on your promise to Edy Lundeen. She of all people deserve the special treatment from the Nigerian telemarketers.
threefeetback says
Desparately scraping the bottom of the barrel for some more bait and switch.
Jose Chung says
This is same OT 6 A course room at the Sandcastle with Agents of Fear on all sides.
That is unless you have wads of hundred dollar bills poking out of every pocket and leave a trail every where you go.
UUUUH,no thank you.
iJefferson says
Also love the demonic reference for “results and successes”. Mark 5:9. We are Legion. Haha.
Aquamarine says
I jumped on this one too, right away. Results = “legion”? Very great in number? Right.
plainoldthetan says
“The results…are legion!”
What is legion is the amount of hyperbole in these “reg” letters.
Is it really true that the Solo Course completions at AOLA and FLAG are pumping off completions? Or…as is more likely…that the completions talked about are the top 2 1/2 percenters, the ones who were already on the line ready to complete before GAT II came out?
LET’S SEE THE STATS INSTEAD OF SINGLE ANECDOTAL EXAMPLES.
And doesn’t the existence of this “reg” letter tell us that there are too few people rushing to get onto the course(s)?
remoteviewed says
POT,
You’re never going to see actual stats or any real products for that matter from the Church of Squirrelotology.
Just lil’ squirrels going around and round in their little squirrel cages.
Getting to OT VIII means having to go back and redo the purif and a grueling 150 hrs of objectives.
As anyone can see by comparing the completions listed in their recent mags with earlier editions of the same mag that most of them had completed earlier.
Same names having done the same thing earlier.
As Yogi Berra once said:
“It’s deja vu all over again.”
The only difference maybe is that the same names are getting less and less.
In other words they’re just recycling through the same ol’ same ol’ public.
What is also known as cannibalizing.
Ironically exactly what they accused the Mission Holders of doing way back.
barefacedmessiah says
“This course has bought me up the tone scale. From “fear” to Tone 40!”
????
Fear? 1.0 on the tonescale ????
A Clear is 4.0, right?
Or did this person pay money to the IAS and it was really “has bought me up”.
Jane Doe says
My Christmas wishes for you all in the form of lyrics:
“My life goes on in endless song
Above earth’s lamentations,
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation,
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing,
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?
While though the tempest loudly roars,
I hear the truth, it liveth.
And though the darkness ’round me close,
Songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my inmost calm,
While to that rock I’m clinging.
Since love is lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging,
When friends by shame are undefiled
How can I keep from singing?
Enya Lyrics “How Can I Keep from Singing?”
Aquamarine says
That’s beautiful, Jane Doe!
Hallie Jane says
Nice!
