Karen Pressley on the madness of Sea Org life: ‘I no longer belonged to my dreams’

By Tony Ortega, May 26, 2018

Quote:

We recently asked Marc Headley and Jefferson Hawkins for excerpts from their books about their experiences in the Sea Org, and today we have an outtake from Karen Pressley’s book, Escaping Scientology: My Journey with the Cult of Celebrity Spirituality, Greed & Power.

Like Headley and Hawkins, Pressley wants us to understand the Orwellian world of Int Base, and what it was like to live at the whims of a madman like Scientology leader David Miscavige. We think she did a bang-up job.

Continued at https://tonyortega.org/2018/05/26/k...a-org-life-i-no-longer-belonged-to-my-dreams/

So I made a list of the aka's. That was quite some work, as there are aka's such as married names (that you want to search for), but there are also aka's such as handles at ESMB (do not want).

And then I checked the full list of people who don't have a reference to Kristi's site, including the aka's, against completions, that is the list of people who have done at least one course from Kristi's site.

Here are the results.

There's a difference with the above post though. Above, I checked if my finding gave a working link at Kristi's site, and then copied the link in the post.

In the list below however I generated the link in Excel and just copied it here. I did not check each separate link at Kristi's site, but I checked only a few links (Marie Louise Eckert and Valeska Paris) and those were ok, so I am assuming the rest is also ok.

Also I must note that the order is the same as in the big list. E.g. Gretchen Gilbert (who you would think is in G) is an aka for Gretchen St. Lawrence (who is actually in S).

Again, I did not check if timelines were consistent.

I also found that in my earlier search for names on the big list in the clear list I made the mistake of putting a space behind each persons name. (An error in an Excel formula.)

The following people on the big list are (now) in the clear list in the database which is below Kristi's site. The number is the clear number. (Please note the clear list is a separate list from the list of names who completed at least one course.)

However, for e.g. Ted Crammer I don't get a page. When I google

"ted crammer" 5183

I get a link to holysmoke, but that website seems to have been reorganized.

So I put the publication name and number in the table below.

Maybe it is an idea to refer to this post: https://whyweprotest.net/goto/post?id=2658870#post-2658870
and the

Gary Brown 5877 Auditor 133
Ted Crammer 5183 Auditor 121
Carol Garrity 6106 Auditor 138
Ruth Johnston 6231 Auditor 142
Edward Kemper 5465 Auditor 126
Betty Meriwether 6251 Auditor 142
Janie Peterson 5915 Auditor 134
Steve Solomon 6030 Auditor 136

Because of the same error as in the previous post (the space) I now found a list of 38 people who used to have a cookie cutter site (like the clear list, this is a separate list in Kristi's database). Should the evidence of them having been in be weak, then there is this.

E.g. Marisa Sigmond http://www.forum.exscn.net/threads/people-who-no-longer-have-scientologist-online-pages.36609/page-2

So, now summarizing, I checked a current big list, including all the aka's (which I did not use ever before) against a recent version of the database which is the basis for Kristi's site.

I checked against the names that can also be found on the site itself starting at http://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/a/

I checked against the clear list that is in the database itself.

I checked against the list of cookie cutter sites that is also in the database itself.

I'm pretty sure now I don't have to do the above at #8091 anymore.

Unless, of course, I flunked my exam

Should note there are a few recurring errors in the above, such as Jeffrey Levine. Plox to check before adding completions.

3 out of 4, 75% accurate

You got the 3 cookie cutter names

But you missed the Clear, Kathleen Carey http://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/k/kath-carey.html

Notice I added working links in the quote for the cookie cutter names. Thanks for finding more, I'll go through the rest of the list of 38 people to figure out each of their URLs.

I'm not sure why I'm still finding names in the Clear list you didn't, I guess I'll keep going through and manually looking.

Ted already has a working link for his Clear status, it's a Waybacked version of the holysmoke site, so ungoogleable: https://web.archive.org/web/2007120...e.org/cos/crime-syndicate-flag-stats-2002.htm

I shall however change his Clear link, now that he's in the database, thusly:
http://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/by-name/t/t-ammer.html

and will do the same for the other 7 you found if need be.

Thanks again!

Would it help if I started the separate thread anyway?

- Not sure but I think I can use e.g. wget to download a webpage and then use some find tool to check if a last name is in the downloaded html-page.
- Should this work out, than I think it would be possible to write a command file doing the above for all the people who do not have a reference to Kristi's site.
- The results of all this could be posted.

Question is if the extra data is worth the effort. (Just like going through each entry by hand is.)

If you think it's worth the try, please add the above data to the big list so I can again download a current version.

Yw.

Haastige spoed is zelden goed. (More haste, less speed.)

(And using a csv without the proper database documentation sucks.)

Ok I'm up to E and still have 114 names to check/add links for, will have to wait till I'm back home later.

I may manually check through the rest of C and D just to see if any were missed, but I have a feeling we might already be at the by Jove moment

The link to holysmoke for Marc Chacon gave me a 404

Still working on something.

Here: https://www.truthaboutscientology.com/stats/clears/index.html Kristi tells she tallied >15,000 clears.

However, from that CSV file I only got about 7,257. So there's an 8,000 difference.

People being mentioned more than once? People doing the level more than once? Me screwing up the csv?

Am trying to wget to get this cleared (heh) up. Keep getting an error though

Is there an extra line feed between the K and L?

(For those of you with an eye for the finer details.)

It's up to you if only as an academic exercise to see if it can be done before I do any manual checking by hand. I need a sanity break from that tedium after today's work editing the list

Done!

Over a dozen of the full name links were false positives, the known years in weren't even close to completion years. I didn't keep track of them but you could use my above link to compare what I didn't add from your earlier post listing if you want names to exclude from repeatedly showing up in your lists of completion links not added.

BY JOVE YOU'RE RIGHT!

Fixed now.

Are you sure you're counting the same way Kristi is? Because there are 473 487 names on our list that are just "Clear" but there's also an extra 440 on our list that are OT I or higher and they can also be counted as at least Clear even though they're now beyond that and the word "Clear" is not in their entry. So that makes 913 927 Clears on our list

In any case, thank Kristi for giving you the database because now we have 1538 1556 names with links to Kristi's site, up from 1410 before this all began, that crossed the 50% threshold of our total names!

EDIT: Updated numbers from extra details added in post #8115.

I wasn't checking the page on her site with something in the big list but with the csv-file she gave me. I extracted a list of clears by checking in the csv for every line if the word "clear" was in it. That gave me the 7 thousand number. But she has 15,000. So that is strange.

First I'll check if I can wget the clear lists from the auditor magazines on the page to answer the above question.

If that doesn't help somehow, I'll try if I can work out the thing in post 8102.

Already done!

Also, please check Marc Chacon's entry. I got a 404. see above.

Solved. It was me screwing up the csv.

However, there also are people who were mentioned more than once. I can find 14,156 unique names (not saying they are unique persons), while 845 of those have more than 1 mention of them reaching the level. A good many of them even have the same clear number, so I'll take it that those are the same people. Also typos such as

7136 Alden L. Wood Auditor 150
7236 ALDEN L. WOOD Auditor 154

or did this guy do it twice?

Ok, checked the clear list I now have against anyone on the big list who doesn't have a truthaboutscientology link.

Gary Brown is a special case. Three mentions, three different clear numbers.

GARY BROWN Auditor 133 5877
GARY BROWN Auditor 157 11055
Gary Brown Auditor 195 31107

One person doing clear 3 times? Or different persons? Your guess is as good as mine.

The following names (exact name search) all had 1 mention. (And there is Ted again, I see now.)

Ted Crammer Auditor 121 5183

Donna Day Auditor 164 20,35

Shiona Fox-Ness Auditor 150 6448

Ewan Guy Auditor 150 7061

Haydn James Auditor 150 6989

Ulrich Kramer Auditor 150 7086

Vic Krohn Auditor 164 19,788

Don Larson Auditor 150 7062

Erika Lester Auditor 150 6917

Deirdre Maloy Auditor 164 20,182

Rita Naman Auditor 166 20545

Robin Rhyne Auditor 164 19,792

Ben Roets Auditor 174

Marcia Schilling Auditor 175 26701

Jane Scott Auditor 244

Tim Skog Auditor 169 22970

Darlene Taylor Auditor 172 25264

Allan Tierney Auditor 150 6904

So.. when you follow my example and add to that 7 thousand by extracting a list of clears by checking in the csv for every line if the word "OT" is in it, what do you get?

Uhm... every line where the word hot is in.

There's a difference between the clear list and the completions list, where the higher levels such as OT are. I think I understand where you want to go (find all the OT's) but that will be a job for tomorrow.

Yawn. Off to bed.

Oh crap I thought I was done for the day.

*Takes a moment to reset from party mode*

Okay, here we go..

18 more Kristi links. Only 4 of the names already mention Clear or higher in their entries, so 14 more Clears!

On second thought I don't think this will be useful.

One can get to clear status by doing the appropriate courses, paying shitloads of money and then, yiipiekayee, I am clear now. However there are also past-life clears, natural clears, "I'll see to it you get to be clear because I want to fuck you"-clears and what not. In theory one can be proclaimed clear without doing a course.

However, AFAIK you can only get the OT-status by doing the course. There are no past-life OT7s.

I think Kristi had to create a separate table for clears for this reason. The OT's are all in de people-table and have one or more OT courses as completions. Clears are in a separate table which includes the name of the person.

So if we find someone in completions as having OT-status, then the normal page (by using the correct full name) should always mention the OT-course.

And this is why the site has the useful feature to also list completions when there is no fulle name in the link.

Note: tried wget from my computer at work. Didn't work here also. Maybe Kristi doesn't want people to wget her site or it is just a server configuration error.
