I noticed now that I had forgotten to give the particulars if someone 
wanted to obtain a paper copy of the transcript.  One should ask for:
  
SALLY JESSY RAPHAEL Transcript #741 
Air Date:  July 9, 1991
Scientology Ruined My Life (Title)

A repost of the former post follows:

When I recently read the transcript of the Sally Jesse Raphael show 
regarding Scientology, I became aware of a number of other 
businesses/charities that operate as fronts for Scientology 
recruiting/fund raising. 

I thought I would summarize the ones mentioned in the transcript for the 
benefit of those who did not read it but might be interested in the 
information.  

Narcanon: a group that is supposed to deal with issues of drug abuse.

Criminon: a group that is supposed to eliminate crime.

Sterling Management Systems: a group that recruits doctors, 
	veterinarians, dentists, and other professionals to Scientology.  
	The transcript reads, "Its purpose is to recruit professionals 
	into Scientology, because professionals have more money than the 
	people on the street.  That is true. That is absolutely true."

Way-to-Happiness Foundation: a group that is supposed to foster good public
	relations for Scientology.

Applied Scholastics: a group which teaches Hubbard's educational methods.

Citizens Commission on Human Rights: a group with the alledged goal of 
	eliminating psychiatry and installing Scientology in its place.

Concerned Businessman's Association of America: a group to promote Hubbard's
	business techniques.

Health Med: a group supposed to promote Hubbard's medical breakthroughs 
	such as eliminating toxins from the body.

Diet for a Poisoned Planet: a Scientology based book advertised through
	tele-marketing.  No specifics about this book are in the transcript.

Association for Better Living and Education: the umbrella group which 
	operates a number of the groups listed above.


I also recommend that anyone who hasn't read the transcript take the time 
to do so.  It contains a number of touching personal stories of 
ex-Scientologist and people with family members in Scientology.
