Since some of the materials which describe the $cientology cult could be
considered to be copywritten materials, I have censored myself and The
Skeptic Tank by deleting any and all possible text files which describes
the cult's hidden mythologies.  I have elected to quote just a bit of the
questionable text according to the "Fair Use" legal findings afforded to
those who report.  -  Fredric L. Rice, The Skeptic Tank, 09/Sep/95

    a.r.s. was not mentioned, but those with videos and curiosity,
    and experience of USENET, would recognise the shot of Jon Atack
    reading a.r.s. for what it was.
    
    Of course, a.r.s. is famous in the UK already.  WIRED UK gave it
    a four page write-up in the July/August issue.  To think I might
    have missed this if Jack Farmer had not mentioned it...
