[Applause]
Now as this is indeed a classic New Years celebration, we'll consider
what it means to work the magic of LRH tech across every sector of
application.
And make no mistake: to a stultified student discovering Applied
Scholastics, a strung out addict entering Narconon, a failing
businessman chancing on a WISE consultant, LRH technology seems
nothing if not magical.
But to miraculously transform a whole planet, you've got to conjure up
the full LRH technical legacy, very much including all you just saw
enumerated on those screens as highlights of 2006.
And while we can't yet do it in the blink of an eye, you'll be amazed
how much ground we can take when we do it as a strategically
coordinated force.
Because with accelerating speed through each passing month of this
past year, we really did ignite all engines at the IAS anniversary
just 2 months ago.
To quickly recap, those campaigns were specifically engineered to halt
the dwindling spiral.
Or more technically, to literally audit this planet from 3 feet behind
society's head, and thereby remove the surface charge before it builds
up and blows the whole works.
So yes, indeed, as a combined whole you can label those strategies as
"Planetary Salvage," embracing all pivotal programs from the very top
in the creation of new ideal orgs, to the very bottom in eradicating
the virus of aberration at its source.
Accordingly, if not poetically, where better to begin a year-end
review than with our 2006 campaign to break the dark spell cast across
Earth by psychiatry.
By way of a recap, that campaign was expressly-maybe even
diabolically-engineered to ignite both government action and media
blizzard.
It's also got an internal kicker: our Mental Health Budget Adjustment
Kit which essentially works like a smart bomb in that it sniffs out
psych fuel lines and blows the funding mechanism.
And in that way, to put it bluntly, we booby trap the whole
psychiatric ecosystem.
[Standing ovation]
So while only 9 weeks have passed since global activation, here's the
preliminary action report. CCHR Central has a tracking board designed
to measure collateral damage from our campaign roll-out. It monitors
both incoming complaints of psych abuse and outgoing psych alerts to
state and federal prosecutors.
And while it's sometimes tricky to determine just whose bomb hit the
ammo dump, this much is blazingly clear.
While it takes a psych 8 years to earn his license, we've already
yanked 21 in the last 4 weeks. (Chuckles)
[Standing ovation]
Then there's all our campaign represents as a high-pressure system for
an anti-psych climate of which the best barometer is the anti-psych
media index.
And while CCHR trackers describe the last 4 weeks as highest ever, the
psychs themselves have a somewhat more descriptive name for it:
Apocalypse now!
[Audience laughter]
And here the satelite view. The first of 4 plagues to visit
psychiatrists in the wake of our campaign was a veritable storm of
British press- more than 800 column-inches mushrooming up from our
launch site in England.
Then came the 2,600 newspaper, magazine, and e-news articles like a
cloud of locusts from elsewhere around the world, followed by a third
swarm of newsclips, documentaries and televised forums.
Then, just when the psychs thought the seas had parted, and they
thought they could safely enjoy this holiday season, it all rained
down.
Because what with CCHR-inspired hearings on the menace of new
generation psych drugs, the age-old secrets of how psychs cut deals
with the FDA have finally come to light.
And since the FDA can't get the toothpaste back in the tube, they just
agreed to smear new black box warnings all over the anti-depressant
lineup.
Which in turn, fueled an anti-psych media fest like something out of
Revelations. And it looks like this: the Washington Post, the
Washington Times, the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, Herald Tribune,
USA Today, Associated Press and all over network news until as of
tonight --Well, let me put it like this:
At our IAS Anniversary celebration, I told you psychs were about to
believe in the Divine Wrath of God. And sure enough, they now know
that wrath is swift and certain because in just the last 8 weeks came
37,824 column-inches of anti-psych press to mess them up but good. And
that's our 2006 campaign for the Global Obliteration of Psychiatry!
[Standing ovation]
While the Way to Happiness numbers were already big as of last year,
Operation Planetary Calm is all about global saturation - as in
worldwide airplay of 21 Public Service Announcements, each one
illustrating a precept from The Way to Happiness.
It's also about plugging into what you might call the worldwide
"social mainframe" for high volume delivery to target populations.
By way of example: While you can shotgun booklets across Anytown USA,
you need distribution points like this one to hit mainstream America.
It's the Ashland Springs Hotel in Ashland, Oregon. It caters to
upscale vacationers, and instead of a Gideon's Bible on the
nightstand, it's now The Way to Happiness.
[Standing ovation]
Similarly, while you can hand out bundles of booklets across every
African American neighborhood, you need someone like this to reach a
target group of 12 to 18-year-olds. She's hip hop fashion queen Kimora
Lee Simmons. Her custom cover coordinates with her fashion line, and
she funnels booklets through inner cities in both New Jersey and Los
Angeles.
Then there's our corporate tie ins. The multi-nationals tend to have
Third World image problems, so this is what they're doing about it:
Coca Cola Pakistan with a Braille edition for the blind - nationally
televised no less.
Philips Electronics likewise all over Pakistan.
And Dell Computers all over Africa.
Then there's the power of Way to Happiness right in the marketplace as
in the big retail chains who have an obvious vested interest to cut
shoplifting.
And when you're talking front line retail, you can't get much bigger
than 7 Eleven. So here's a few of their 4,000 plus outlets across
Taiwan.
The numbers go even larger when you follow the campaign trail into
Taiwanese schools. To date, it's 250,000 by order of Taiwan's
Ministry of Education.
It's also running through national distribution channels elsewhere
around the world.
Here's the first Lebanese edition as just approved by Lebanon's
Ministry of Security.
And here's how Ecuador's Postal Service said, "Merry Christmas 2006."
And if I haven't even touched on the grass roots rollout from Africa
and Europe to Australia and the Americas, suffice it to say
With presses running off new booklets every 10 seconds and in greater
numbers through the last 8 weeks than the whole previous year, 2006
ends with The Way to Happiness now in the hands of more than 70
million people across 131 nations. And that's Operation Planetary Calm
as we enter 2007!
[Standing ovation]
