Dennis's behavior on the FOM list, at the behest and encouragement of
Steve Hassan, was one of the last straws that prompted me, the real
owner of the listserv, to delete the whole listserv, which I did in
January, 2009. Steve Hassan liked to claim it was "his" list, but in
reality he did nothing to contribute to the list other than
occasionally use it as an advertising venue or to appropriate posts
without permission. I no longer associate with or support Steve
Hassan, and this is one of the many reasons. He asked Dennis to come
on the list specifically to attack Monica, and Steve was a coward in
not representing himself. Dennis was the perfect bulldog --
attacking, ad hominen all the time, arrogant, and very vulgar and
sexist. I was glad to be rid of him. I am sorry Steve Hassan has
such a person as a friend, which shows me he has very poor judgment in
this area. Monica attempted to defend herself and Dennis was the
epitome of an angry, hateful person. I am so glad I don't have to
deal with him or Steve Hassan ever again.

For the record, Steve Hassan later apologized to me for bringing
Dennis Erlich onto the list serv. He told me that he had no idea
Dennis was going to behave towards me in such a hateful manner. I have
given Steve the benefit of the doubt and forgiven him, since he had
the decency to apologize.

Don't care. Your personal drama is not relevant to this group.
I wouldn't even say anything, but you bring a lot of trolls with you and
it's damn annoying.
TRANSLATION: I, Cathleen Mann, took over as moderator of the former
Freedom of Mind discussion group and shut it down in January 2009.
Thus, I managed to remove a cult victim resource from the Internet.
Oh, well, Rick Ross still has an active discussion board on his site.
Maybe Cathleen was working for him, seeing as how he and Steve Hassan
were squabbling not long before that.
Cathleen was a moderator of this list serv since the very beginning of
the list. Cathleen and I were both moderators from the beginning of
the creation of that list serv. The list initially had two moderators,
Cathleen and myself. After I stopped being a moderator, Cathleen
became the sole moderator of the list serv. Steve Hassan was never the
moderator or the owner of the list. Cathleen was always the owner, as
Steve didn't feel he had the time to do this. The problem with the
list was, it had deteriorated into such vicious attacks that it was no
longer a good resource for cult victims or anyone else, which was why
she deleted it and I believe she was right to do so because it no
longer served any constructive purpose.

No, she's not working for Rick Ross.
