That building does look somewhat 1990s - that is, dated, rather than classical and timeless. I hope they can tear it down and replace it with something fittingly modern.
This has some definite promise! But on the other side of the coin, rain means less visibility, which means its harder to see protestors. Which means this could be OT Super Powerz at work! Relevant Q: with daylight savings time kicked in, what time does it get dark in Clearwater?
Lol. Deserved that one. If it gets dark before the event starts, then that would be another problem on seeing any protestors and their signs beside the rain. But if it's after the event starts, then it's not a problem. Not sure what it's like in Clearwater, so just wondering.

They never had any problems when that tent was in England that we know of. And it can rain a lot in October in England during the IAS event.
Thanks DH. I guess Google is my friend also applies. Usual scilon event times seem to be anywhere from 6:30 to 7:30pm. So if sunset is at 5:39pm, that means it will be black even before the majority of people get there. Then add rain and protestors would be barely visible. Under those conditions, not even sure what kind of pics you could take. I'm no photo expert, but in that kind of darkness it seems like you'd just get swirls of movement. Unless you could get close enough to a culty to flash a pic while they stay still and smile (lol, not). Ha! Stupid scilons. Putting all that work and money into permits and high security when they didn't even need to do it! It'll be too dark anyways. And the way it's shaping up, we may not even need to do anything after all (except maybe pray to the rain gods). What an epic start to Stupid Powerz if they get rained out!
LOL Precept is a Jehovas Witness. Why is it that the door to door religious people are always the biggest assholes behind closed doors? Keep your leaflets to yourself. Nobody gives a fuck about your bullshit. nevermind.
My message to the Mayor of Clearwater: Give it more of this :- (*) or they will sue your ass and kill your dog.
Four Days to Super Power — And Look At This View! With just four days to go until Scientology dedicates its new “cathedral” in Clearwater, Florida, we were sent this view of the Super Power Building from an angle we’ve never seen before. As you can see, this photo was taken from inside one of the most holy places in Scientology’s earthly existence, the Fort Harrison Hotel! Looking over Fort Harrison Avenue from what looks like the fifth or sixth floor of the hotel, in the lower left you can see the air bridge that connects the two buildings. And yes, you can see the big bow on the Super Power Building, so you know this was taken in the last day or so. That’s so cool!

^^ What a beautiful Brackett Red that bow and ribbon is! Very fitting when you consider that the parishioners gave so much and even more, to the point of it hurting, to make that building possible.
Please please <insert deity here> let it rain on that big red ribbon so that the deep red color runs down the side of the building. Please oh please I promise I will be good if you only do this one thing for me I will never<insert vice here> again!
It's really windy and it's cold outside to us Floridians. Temp has dropped. Maybe it's not going to be the rain that pisses on their soiree, but the wind that rips through. Please, God. Just one lightning bolt on that blasphemous cross. Just one. Thanks, God.
A little rain's not going to scare off any BIG OT's, well according to an article in their OT Phenomena fanzine, they make rain force-fields on a whim. In fact, why do they even need a tent? Couple of BIG BEINGS should be able to handle that chore
The tent was taken down in UK, transported half the globe, then put back together in Clearwater. Just one minor scratch in the right place could've made the fabric vulnerable and just a bit leaky. If just a few waterdrops hit some electric device inside the tent.. Now I certainly don't hope that will happen..
Totally. With all the OT's, postulating the greatest good for the most ethical group on the planet , what could possibly go wrong?
With luck and a good wind everything, failing that something in the toilet area for RolandRB . He has shown genuine concern and I do believe he's lost sleep over the situation bless him.
