The move in '72 wasn't disappearing, it was getting bigger digs on Olive Drive. They continued to operate there, grew like mad through the '70s, and continued until the Finance Police looted and closed the place in the mid-80s. Meanwhile, they spun off new missions in Sacramento, Portland, and San Francisco, as well as starting the Delphian Foundation (where all those Delphi schools came from). That mission, directly or indirectly, was responsible for recruiting several thousand public scilons, a few hundred staff, and some dozens of SO. The new one may be a joke compared to the old one, but you shouldn't take it lightly.

Also, the entire time they were there, their demographic was 95% students. I don't think it's safe to assume that the boomers are their target.

The old COSMOD (Church of Scilontology, Mission of Davis) was established by Martin Samuels, who lost everything after the infamous 1982 Mission Holders Conference at Flag. The various branches (COSMOD-Sac, COSMOD-Portland, etc.) were generating one-fifth of Scilontology's worldwide income before Miscavige seized control.

I was there. It was on Olive Drive, across from Slater's Court (if that still exists). So those old davistards who don't know anything about anything will remember when the Olive Drive mission was there, and doing well at that. Chances are some of those close-minded boomers who write letters with a quill, will have bad memories of it. I do.

Heh, next time I go to California to visit the family still living their, I'll have to pay a visit to the mission. I don't remember ever seeing the Scilon mission when I lived in Davis. This may also be a good opportunity to raid UC Davis.

I used to go by the username "number 6" but decided to kill that avatar. So, no I am not a n00b.

If anyone wants to post a pic of the "old ladies" running the place, I can probably identify them for you, and tell you something about them.

The MU building/Quad should have some nice places to leave fliers and posters.

If this town used to have a mission long ago and now has a new one, raid them like there is no tomorrow!

I am hereby dropping some dox on the old COSMOD Davis mission. This is a semi-complete listing of staff there during the 1970s. Not all were full staff, some were "staff members in training" or "SMITs," people who joined staff after Martin Samuels made Class IV auditor status a prerequisite for being a full staff member, but who had not yet completed that training. In cases where informants are pretty sure that the person had a place on the Davis org board, but are unsure what exactly their status was, there will be a question mark after their name.

Why am I posting this list? When the 130+ people listed in this document, or any of their friends, check online to find out what happened to their old scilon pals, they will find WWP, and hopefully take a look around.

It's also useful for all you woggy types out there to get an idea of how inbred the scilon community is. From this group of people, to virtually any scientologist that has ever lived, you've got a maximum of a couple of steps. Kind of like "Mormon mafia," but a lot more concentrated and intense. Random example: "Captain Bill" Richardson of the FZ connects to Jay Okamoto (who took various ethics actions against him), and Jay Okamoto connects to 3/4 of the people on this list.

It also incidentally shows how much scientology has shrunk since then. A friggin' mission had more staff than almost any org in the world has now.

Without further ado, here's the list. It's maybe 3/4 complete, additions and corrections are welcomed. If a mod thinks it would be better placed in a different thread, that's welcomed too.

That's a lot of scilons for a little mission!

Anonymous

10% of the income from missions was coming from there. In a town of 30,000, operating out of an old auto repair garage, yeah. That a lot of scilons.

I guess not a whole lot of these stuck around.
