Hmm, yep, the story of Xenu again (Hubbard version).
Date: 4 Oct 2006 10:20:28 -0700
The head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around larger stars
visible from here) (founded 5,000,000 years ago, very space opera)
solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per planet, 178 billion on
average) by mass implanting. He caused people to be brought to
Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H-Bomb on the principal volcanos (Incident
II) and then the Pacific area ones were taken in boxes to Hawaii and
the Atlantic area ones to Las Palmas and there "packaged".
His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading data by means
of circuits etc. was placed in the implants.

Freethinker, that letter to Google is a scam.
First : RTC does NOT hold the copyrights to those materials mentioned.
RTC holds trademarks but not copyrights.
Second: BPI does not hold copyrights to any scientology materials. Only
44 of Hubbard's personal books and recordings, many via agreement with
Norman F. Starkey, trustee of acAuthor's Family Trust-B (on original
appl.: acBridge Publications, Inc. d.b.a. Bridge Audio)
New Era Publications does hold some copyrights in bulk form along with
some books like dictionaries so there is the possibility of NEP holding
some copyright to some of what was mentioned but none of those numbers
provided are listed under BPI or NEP. NEP is not named as a client in
their letter. BPI is.
Third: The number *TXu 257-326 is registered to:Claimant: acNorman F.
Starkey as Executor of the Estate of L. Ron Hubbard d.b.a. L. Ron
Hubbard Library Created: 1986
Not RTC. Now, there may be some form of registered agreement between
Starkey as Executor and RTC but it is not noted on ANY of the materials
mentioned and RTC is not even listed as a copyright holder at the US
Copyrights office.
( *see complete data below)
Fourth: Scientology clearly states that RTC is only the holder of
Trademarks: RELIGIOUS TECHNOLOGY CENTER HOLDER OF THE DIANETICS AND
SCIENTOLOGY TRADEMARKS
http://www.scientologytoday.org/corp/rtc.htm
Essentially RTC oversees correct application and USE of the trademarked
materials. That means that trademark oversite has ZERO to do with
Copyright oversite and because of this RTC cannot have a valid
complaint with Google on this point and in it's complaint against you.
Even if RTC holds some sort of agreement to provide copyright oversite
of the upper level materials, that does not make them the owner and
holder of the copyrights.
Nature of a Being: TX-3-090-515 is (COHM) Title: The Technical
bulletins of dianetics and scientology : vol. XII, 1980-1984 / by L.
Ron Hubbard. The Claimant: Norman F. Starkey, trustee of the author's
family trust-B d.b.a. L. Ron Hubbard Library.
Author on © Application:Church of Scientology International, employer
for hire. Previous Related Version: Prev. reg. 1981, TX 748-936. So
the L. Ron Hubbard Library would have to be filing the complaint on
that one if indeed, the nature of a Being is within that volume.
"flu 257-527 and flu 290 496" : These flu's don't exist in that system
and if you consider a misspelling of the first 3 letters, you get TXu
docs unrelated to Scn.
Only the NOTs was was clearly related to the title of the material but
Ava filed this for the wrong owner.
*The correct owner of this doc # TXu 257-326 is:

Did you transcribe this .tif or did google? The spelling and typing
errors are many. Perhaps the Reg # are not correct to begin with but
there are no 'flu' docs in the copyright system.
You can find all the above info and any other you may need over at the
US Copyright search database:

I hope you consider filing a rebuttal.

Thank you for your response Anticlamology. To answer your question,
after opening the .tif, discovered it contained pages of a scanned fax.
I converted the scanned image to a Word document. I did notice that
the translation contained several errors. I fixed the ones that I
noticed.
I have considered filing a rebuttal, but I am not sure on what basis.
I simply cut-n-pasted from Karin Spaink's page and the information
from: http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Secrets/index.html (Just helping to
spread the information)
Acording to the letter to DMCA Complaints:....
"OT III" and "NOTS." These works are registered with the United States
Copyright Office under registration numbers: TXu 257-326, TXu 257-527
and TXu 290 496.
..."Purification Rundown Case Data Purification Rundown Case Data"
registration number TX 1328 179, and "The Nature of a Beig,"
registration number TX 3-090-515.
Thanks aging for the reply.

Your basis would be: "these quotations are fair use as permitted under
17 U.S.C. 107, and therefore do not constitute a copyright violation."
It's that simple.
Here's a form for a counternotification letter:
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Terrorism/form-letter.html
This form has been used successfully by other people to counteract an
Avagram. It works, and it's free. Two things that are NOT true for
Scientology.
