Subject: Transcript of Co$ web spam plan From: [email protected] (Deana Holmes) Date: 1998/03/17 Message-ID: <[email protected]> Newsgroups: alt.religion.scientology The following is a transcript of the pertinent segment from the LRH birthday celebration on Friday, March 13, 1998. The speaker, I'm told, is Mark Ingber. [] indicate segments that I could not hear. <> indicate crowd respons or my comment. [] while we are moving new Scientologists onto the bridge, we must continue to enlighten millions more, and on that score, I'd like to tell you about a new crusade. As I am sure you have heard since the launch of our internet sites, many, many millions have visited those sites. As a matter of fact, the number of hits has just passed the 50 million mark. Now, when we launched our Internet program, we mentioned how we are factually creating that perfect dissemination program LRH described in 1959 when he stated, "The conditions of a perfect dissemination program would be, of course, maximum dissemination with minimum effort. This adds up to an instantaneous postulate which soars around the world without even using space." Then too he stated, "If we use the existing comm lines within the society and these already through [proved] [it] and not tied to [ ] trying to make new channels [] could be spent in using them." Today, we are certainly making use of this channel through our 116 Scientology internet sites, comprising [] 37,000 pages of material. Those numbers may seem high and according to most netizens ??!!!> they are, such as in a letter recently received from the Association of Online Professionals stating that the Church operates one of the world's largest information oriented websites.Yet, while the Internet is a terrific communication channel, one where millions all over the world have been finding out what Scientology is, we want to take it to an even higher level, to get our message out to everyone regardless of where they search that cyberspace. You see, logging on to the Internet is like opening a giant phone book. When you log in and enter the word "Scientology", you'll get all the listings that contain that word from whenever and wherever, anywhere in the world. And while we've been reaching a high volume of people through our 116 main Internet sites, we look at it this way, we have a whole planet to clear. So how do we expand our dissemination power and reach even further? What if we were to boost the number of Scientology sites from 116 to 1160 or 11,600, or, better, 116,000. Now that would be expanding our comm lines. So here's a program that's going to expand our lines a thousandfold, one in which you will be involved, and it will even help you personally, because starting tonight, we are making it possible for any Scientologist to go online with their very own Dianetics and Scientology Internet site. That means that when somebody logs into the Internet, they will get the full listing on Scientology sites, and that will include your personal website. Our latest Internet project is called Scientologists On Line. To establish your site, you will receive a Scientologists On Line starter kit <"cool!" from someone near Brady Lard>, containing everything that you need including software to construct your own website. All you need to be able to do is type on a keyboard and if you don't have a computer, you can use a friend's. Let's say you live in New York, and someone in your local area wants to find out about Scientology and so types in "Scientology" or your name. Your site will be there, and will have the name of your site and your location. Here is what your personal website will look like. Your home page welcomes the viewer to your site in [?] a headline, "I am a Scientologist. Support religious tolerance." By the way, we'll be campaigning that header, "I am a Scientologist" to other and any religion: "I am a Buddhist. Support religious tolerance," and so forth. And so we promote religious tolerance of all faiths. <10 seconds applause> Your web page will provide the viewer with a little description of yourself and your occupation. Next, they will see your own personal success story in Scientology and whichever LRH quote you pick, chosen from the Knowing and Understanding [?] or the Way to Happiness books. This kit is available, not only in English, but in German, French, Spanish and Italian. And that's just for starters, because in very short order these internet sites will also be available in Danish, Swedish, Dutch, Hungarian, Greek, Russian and Japanese. <12 seconds applause> As more and more Scientologists go online and get listed in this great electronic phone book, here's what will happen. The next time somebody logs on to the Internet and enters a search for Scientology, they're going to get pages and pages of sites and they're all going to be yours. And the only qualification to receive this special Internet site is that you are a Field Staff Member. And so, tonight, I officially appoint all of you FSMs. <10 seconds applause and whoops> What you are about to receive is your own personal dissemination program, a program where you can achieve the maximum amount of dissemination for the most efficient amount of effort. You are about to be able to enlighten people on Dianetics and Scientology in ways you've never imagined. So here's the bigger picture. For further enlightenment, any person who comes browsing through your site, will also be able to instantly connect to any of our main Scientology sites, by a simple click of their mouse. In other words, as an FSM you will have the full support of all our main central sites to enlighten your visitors. Your site will also have a page for you to personally recommend the appropriate LRH book for them to read. But there's more. Since they will be contacting you directly, you can give them further information and enlightenment, guiding them onto the Bridge to Freedom. Now, how is that done? With an FSM's selection slip, of course, by email. They can refer to your website [?] our electronic FSMs selections slip. After enlightening someone via email or a followup phone call, you just type in the selection slip and send it on the Internet to the selectee. At the same time it will print off copies for you to send in to the org. In that simple manner, you become an FSM to untold numbers waiting to be enlightened. For years, survey responses have shown that Scientologists say that their biggest problem they have in disseminating is contacting new people. What with job [], raising a family, going to course yourself and you name it, they say they hate to go out to a coffee shop and approach strangers or people on the street that either don't have the time or can't confront it. Well, that problem has been totally solved, because now you're going to have them contacting you. And let's not forget, every person that enters that word, "Scientology," has already made a reach. So unlike going out to a coffeeshop, you have people coming to you, and the subject has already been brought up--by them. We're convinced that the next survey response is going to show the largest problem FSMs have is so many new people contacting them they can't handle the load. So no matter what you do, even if you aren't a full time FSM, be you a plumber, a lawyer, a doctor, a carpenter, a fireman, or a construction worker, you can become an effective disseminator and Field Staff Member. And, as for no time, it's as simple as this: when you come home from work and are cooking your dinner, log on to your computer, and there will be the names. What this means to planetary dissemination is almost unimaginable, and by being an upstat FSM, you're going to fly up the Bridge yourself, personally.
