Subject: Silly Wins: Scientology shuts down space port at Phoenix

 The recent post about Scientology's silliest wins (sorry, I've lost
that thread...) has given me an excuse to do something I've been
itching to do for a long time: get out my archive of Silly Wins.
They're officially called "OT Phenomena Successes", and were printed
in "Advance!" magazine between about 1978-80. They are *unbelievably*
silly... They also raise an interesting can of worms: the Cos doesn't
make claims like these nowadays. Why? Is the tech less effective than
it was 20 years ago, or something?

 Without further ado, let's have the first Silly Win...

 --------------------------

  "Phoenix for many years has been hot, dry desert country with mountains
  that are fascinating to me and my family.

   One night we decided to take a trip up to the mountains. We climbed,
  using flashlights, and finally reached a peak where we could see all
  the lights of Phoenix spread in a wide vista before us.

   Then we sat down on the rocks to look at the beautiful scene and get
  in communication with the beings in the area.

   By getting in communication with the beings we discovered some
  weather controlling machinery that were installed in each mountain
  peak around the valley that is Phoenix. They were installed there
  eons ago to assure fair weather for the space port which was in
  operation there at the time.

   By auditing the beings running them, we knocked out all those machines.
  And Phoenix has been having rain or floods ever since. The whole desert
  is turning into lush greenery.

   Thanks to Ron for the tech to be OT. One can only be OT by making his
  data his own and using it to the fullest."
