Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

The list is golden now more than ever....
I am calling out all Anons worldwide to translate the list in many languages and post where ever you can, and get it to the media, newspapers or wherever.

We are already getting help from our comrads in Germany....
Now that the flood gates are wide open in Australia, we need to let everyone know world wide about the list.
We need it translated and posted.
in Spanish, Sweedish,French, Japanese and so on and so on...
If anyone can help, it would be appreciated!
GO GO GO!!!!

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

Luca Poma (born Feb. 16, 1972), a journalist, is spokesperson and one of the founders of an organization (Giù le mani dai bambini) that criticizes the prescription of psychiatric medication for children. He was a Scientologist for several years, but was declared a suppressive person because he wrote an essay listing points that didn't convince him in courses that he took. When Luca Poma left Scientology, he asked for and received his personal folder, however his folder is reported to be among the files seized by police at the Turin COS on May 19, 2010. Luca Poma's personal website does not mention Scientology.

On April 2, 2010, Luca Poma published an open letter to Ivan Veri[/URL], head of the Office of Special Affairs at the Turin Church of Scientology. Without condemning Scientology's beliefs, the letter criticizes Scientology's intolerance of criticism and appetite for money:

Luca Poma also spoke out in a long interview published on May 22, 2010:

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

In looking at the home page for the Wiki...
I noticed the current title for the list is as follows:
"Former Members of the Church of Scientology"
It mentions nothing about members speaking out.

Can we make that link look a little bit more noticable and self explanatory?
I mean right now it just says Former members of blah blah.
Maybe someone visiting the Wiki would not even click on that link?

Can we at least change the title to:
"List of Former Members of the Church of Scientology That Have Spoken Out" ???
And maybe bold it?
Right now it just looks like the rest of the links and is no different from the word Miscellaneous!

thotz from the hive?
anyone?????

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

That would make it pretty long. How about "Ex-Members of CoS Speaking Out"?

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

It isn't a link to the list, it's a link to a category in which some links aren't of them explicitly speaking out.

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

yes I know, I just think the title can be more informative?

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

sorry didn't see your post.
yes I believe that would be an improvement
or
Ex Church of Scientology Members Who Spoke Out
some people going to the Wiki might not know what CoS means

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

Think SEO in naming as well.

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

I'm getting ready to create an updated pdf version of the list for use in my info packs, where all the hyperlinks and alpha nav bookmark links will still be intact.

Is the wiki page currently up to date, or do we have some recent additions still pending that I should wait on to trickle thru? and is the total count of 1065 names current? TIA!

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

nice!

checked the history and the last name listed in this thread is on the wiki.
of course this can change as more links, and such get added daily sometimes

any other info?
time in? and what area and whether she was OT or clear ect?
took a VERY quick skim, couldn't find anything

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

PDF Version of the Big List, with all lings intact including navigation bookmarks is now available for harpooning pleasure!

This is Current as of May 24, 2010 - and I'll try and keep this updated every 6-8weeks from here on out.

On Scribd: Ex Scientologists Who Have Spoken Out | Scribd

On Mediafire: Ex-ScientologistsListMay2010.pdf

^^Suggest adding the filesharing link to wiki page

Also - since i had gotten behind on keeping up with making a fresh pdf every 2-3 months, I also squirted my fill-in-the-blank msword doc to mediafire that i use like a template for creating a new hardcopy document. Just in case somebody urgently needs an updated version and I'm nowhere to be found or dont have time to crank a fresh one out.

Blank List template doc: BlankListOfExScientologists.doc

Steps to recreate a fresh list in hardcopy document format:

1. open the blank list document, update misc info and links at the top if need be and save a copy of it for compiling new hardcopy list. The use that copy for compiling new hardcopy version.

2. Copypasta listings for each letter of the alphabet one at a time, use the msword autoformat dropdown button after pasting in bullets and choose "match destination styles" to get rid of common html mess and keep the document version cleanly formatted.

3. Delete out letters not used from listing and navigation links at the top. Add in back to top links (using bookmark setup called "top") at the and of each group of bullets for a given letter.

4. Use the pdf writer of your choice to generate pdf version from msword doc. Beware that many of the freebie print-to-pdf print drivers will kill the hyperlinks so that they look like their still in the text, but dont actually work.

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

Umm.. how about this:

1. Use the built-in "Save as PDF" function when on The List page in Firefox for mobile (available for all OSes aswell)

Ex-ScientologistsListMay2010.pdf

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

because its messy as hell & lots of shit lost in that format. navigation bookmark links are busted, and the readibility of the info in the list is shot to hell with the urls that get expanded to keep a link intact at the cost of wiping out the text the link was on.

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

FYI
I see no evidence that this ' Zackary Carmichael ' was ever a Scientologist or did any OT level. Nada. His few posts at ESMB show he is promoting his book, which is about him being "Xavius " who he claims is the real version of what Hubbard called Xenu. I believe, after reading his book description at Amazon, that he is someone using the ' Zachary Carmichael' pseudonym . See below

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

A Confederation agent is now on Earth. Originally from the tail star of what we know as The Big Dipper, his mission is to right the wrongs that have been done to us.

About the Author

Zachary agreed to be the conduit for this amazing story, as did his father, and his father's father. He maintains a highly distant profile and refuses to talk to other Beings, stating that he has given the tools needed to bring about a better future and that people should otherwise not have reason to contact him. He does maintain an email at zachary.xavius@gmail.com

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

I found this posted by Zachary:

"I began on a comm course and traversed every single course offered in a midwest class IV org, then went to Los Angeles for the SHSBC. Did tons of SO auditing, as an auditor and enjoyed it all until, after 7 years of training, auditing and internships and co-founder of a Mission I returned to the field.

I returned for 2 reasons. I started seeing the tech, as originally written changed (some of the changes were good and that worried me) and to recapture (see 'rehab') the feelings and wonder I had felt in my beginning org.

My beginning org had become totally - 100% deplorable - started a committee of other 'trained' people' and got some of that 'gold' paper. Went to their court - won, they let it staledate, went to court again, won again, and then went to an old senior CS of Flag and completed my auditing - then I just quit.


Then I started on the strangest of journeys that is detailed in the book The Visitor From Sapta Rishi (available on Amazon).

her story
Leaving Scientology

the end of her story reads:
"We are counting on this all being exposed to the rank and file soon, so that we can talk to our friends again but, in the meantime, we will sacrifice our comfort to expose these unconscionable human rights abuses. I, for one, am standing up to be counted."

her husband also left, but she doesn't mention his name, does anyone know his name?

where did he speak out?

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

Don't know if he did, only tried to answer your question:

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

oh sorry, it's best to quote the question, so I know what you are referring to

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

ok wondering about this one:
William Burdwood- staff, CI IV HGDS trained in San Francisco-1970's, SSA FCDC 1972-74
left comments on :
Why Scientologists are so Touchy | www.scientology-cult.com

can anyone confirm this guy? Or know him? Can not find him in the data base, so I don't know if this is a psuedo or not
says he is the fomer brother inlaw of Greg Wilhere

EDITED: ok found this post:
"One character we forgot who was on staff was Bird (William Burdwood). Crazy, but a nice guy."
http://www.forum.exscn.net/archive/index.php/t-2773-p-2.html

and also this comment:
"Birdwood got married to Greg Wilhere's sister I think, Kathy Wilhere. Remember that?"

so this confirms he was on staff and that was his real name AND he was Greg's fomer brother inlaw

Alex Metheny must go off the list.

Seattle Independents, individual comment

Re: Big List of over 1000 Exes Who Have Spoken Out

OMG! that is hysterical and sad to loose a name at the same time. But one cancels out the other.
Although I was tickled that they talked about "the list" without any capitals or quotes!
That's PROGRESS in my book.
It sounds like many more people are aware of it now. And that really made me smile.

Oh well.... we lost an Alex Metheny , but gained a Tony! Same person! lol!
