This is a major development. I've previously cross-posted promo that a Scientology OT VIII, IX and X Case Supervisor (C/S) has been posted. This is the first time I've seen anything about a Scientology OT VIII, IX and X Director of Training (D of T) being posted. This also indicates that OT IX and X will be self-audited levels that will require further training.Meet Burt McKevitt, your new Scientology OT VIII, IX and X D of T.

The main attraction shipped out. I will bet you dimes to donuts a lot went there expecting to meet him, etc.MimseyDid St Hill size actually exist or was it just another story? Was St Hill ever this big booming org that dwarfed any other org or was it 6 weeks of upstats and right back down the shoot again?
If St Hill was such an ideal and huge org, then why didn't it stay that way?
The FSC at Los Angeles had these sort of briefings off and on. They were just a reg ploy, to squeeze more cash out of the public. After the event, I asked the Ship C/S who was giving the briefing, if he had received the materials from up lines. Chagrined, he said no.This is a major development.

I know people are skeptical and I don't blame them, but my bet is that OT IX and X are released next year. I think opening new buildings is getting old, and they need to do something new. Plus, it will bring in more money and satisfy parked OT VIIIs. Just my opinion.The FSC at Los Angeles had these sort of briefings off and on.

Did it exist? What? Did man step on the moon? Is this a goofy conspiracy theory? Of course it existed.Mimsey: You didn't answer his question.

Well, I am sure they could dream up something and pass it off as those levels.I know people are skeptical and I don't blame them, but my bet is that OT IX and X are released next year.

Yes it did exist, I was there in 1968 just after the peak. The reason it was so busy is that students and families came from all over the world at that time, then other AOs were opened and they didn't come any more ... Also the UK banned people coming in for scientology for some time so the ones that sneaked in became fewer.
It was busy though, many US, AU and EU people milling around the Canteen is one of my first memories of the place, I was young and it all felt exciting and purposeful. Sigh.
While I can't answer that question exactly, I think I recall they said back when they were trying to get all the orgs SH size, it had 185 or 200 staff. If you listen to the BC tapes Ron would, at the start of the tapes, after his "Well, today is June 30 AD13..." ( AD 13 = After Dianetics 13 years or 1963) he would announce a few new students. I think he gave lectures once or twice a week, so that was an indication of the expansion.
What is your estimate for the number of staff members for old St. Hill when your were there? Just curious.
You forgot the (LG)-BT's GPM's..... or are they reserved for OT XI and higher ?Well, I am sure they could dream up something and pass it off as those levels.
..... I would work out a way to deliver old goals listing solo. It is the logical next step. R6 EW through OT 2 are all about implant GPMs so what is left? The PC's own self created GPMs.....
The theory I've heard most often is that the COS will recycle the old, pre-NOTs, OT levels, or variations thereof, as OT IX, X, etc.Well, I am sure they could dream up something and pass it off as those levels.
If it were me, and I was the COB, and there was nothing I could find that Hubbard left up his sleeve upper OT wise before he took a one way flight to Target Two, I would work out a way to deliver old goals listing solo. It is the logical next step. R6 EW through OT 2 are all about implant GPMs so what is left? The PC's own self created GPMs. Hubbard did say that implant GPMs were a small part of the bank - only one RI on the PC's own GPM bank, and a course auditing them would have enough WooWoo to satisfy any tech junkie.

Yes, Saint Hill was heaving at that time and I think the ban did more to stem the flow of students than other AO's opening did.
I remember that dreadful canteen too FTS, we probably rubbed shoulders in there on several occasions while you were away from your reception desk.
