I counter-threatened my ISP with litigation from myself in case he doesn't put back the pages, but at the same time I see a loss in principle in letting the CoS create legal disputes between different members and/or categories of the Internet community. I therefore consider suing my ISP as the really last resort. Instead, I advised the CoS's legal representative in Sweden that I will counter any extra-judicial attempts to censor me by publicizing more of the materials that the CoS is trying to stop. I kept my promise. As from now, OT I through OT VIII in the Fishman Affidavit version are available from me as a booklet with a preface in Swedish. It is sold at two different prices: cost price to the public and CoS price to the CoS. If you want it, fill in and send me *the entire* form below together with your payment. =======================CUT HERE============================ Alternative 1: I solemnly certify and declare under penalty of perjury according to the laws of my country of citizenship, my country of residence and Sweden, that I am not a member, employee, representative or voluntary worker of, or in any other way associated, affiliated or connected to the church of scientology or any church, association, company, organization or club in any country that is in any way associated, affiliated or otherwise connected to, controlled by or cooperating with the church of scientology or any body that is, formally or informally, or can be considered in any way connected to that church. I furthermore certify and declare that I do not share any of the views, beliefs or opinions that are advocated by or are characteristical of scientology. I promise not to sell, give away, lend or in any other way hand over the publication ordered below to anybody that has not previously signed a declaration and promise containing the entire text of this declaration and promise. I further promise to keep such declarations and promises and to submit them to Zenon Panoussis free of charge at his request.

Please send the booklets to __________________________ __________________________ __________________________ __________________________ =======================CUT HERE============================ Mail your orders to Zenon Panoussis Högbergsgatan 64 SE-118 54 Stockholm Sweden (the second character in the street address is o-umlaut, Windows ALT-0246 using ISO-8859-1). Please remember that this order form is designed and meant to annoy the CoS and nobody else. In this context I might mention that my differentiated prices constitute the criminal offence of unlawful discrimination under chapter 16, article 9 of the Swedish penal code, though only provided that the CoS really is a religion. I challenge anyone who feels discriminated against to step into action. As you see, bank charges are much higher than the price of the book itself. In spite of this, for reasons of legal precaution, I decided not to use my giro accounts for the order of this material. It's a pity, because at least within Europe it would save both me and you all the trouble and cost of exchange. Now, just in case you would be sending me any other money, I might post the account numbers anyway;) Swedish giro 25 13 29-9 Dutch giro 7206727 Whatever you send, and especially if you use telegiro, girotel and the like, remember that your address doesn't always show on the my statement of account. So be particular to state it in the messages-box, as well as state what the payment is for. The following table can be used for calculating orders. It is not 100% accurate, but it's good enough for me.

Courtesy of a kind Dutch soul, I recently received the NOTs. Should the CoS pull another censoring trick out of court, I might in the future be pestering a.r.s. with more commercial messages such as this one.
