Picketers:  Kaeli, Zeratul, Gregg, Keith and another person who shall not
be
named.

Today's picket started from the usual route - up early and off to
Toronto to picket.  We met at Starbucks (great coffee).  We proceeded
to the car and retrieved our picket signs. Headed off to the Org.

Fairly good foot traffic this am - Toronto is currently hosting a
Film Festival.  Several honks and waves in our direction.  In the morning
there was George the official Scientology videographer and a women
who was handing out DA Fliers with pics of 4 gentlemen if our
acquaintance.
We found a copy of the flyer at the coffee shop across the street from
the Org.  Included in the flier was an ad "When life becomes a
battleground,
your MIND is your best weapon."  Dianetics is the most popular and
effective book on the human mind ever published."  On the reverse :Find
the answers you have been searching for on the human mind.  Get your Copy
of DIANETICS the
Modern Science of Mental Health.
Hard Cover : $49.00
Paperback: $8.99

Free Introductory Dianetics Session - underneath that in tiny print it
says
"free with your purchase of the Book" he he

There is a list of Hubbard (tm) Dianetics Foundation Locations across
Canada
and a list of what causes questions - all of which can be correctly
answered
by:__________________________________. (critics can fill in any thing they
want here). (sample question: What causes unhappy relationships?)

Anyway the picket was quiet and the day very warm and humid.  We broke
for lunch and repaired to the Artful Dodger.  It was a pleasant lunch 
with friends and fun conversations.  Towards the end of lunch an Ambulance
and a Fire Truck stopped close by - we looked and it was for a victim
of the heat who had collapsed outside a store next to the Org. While
waiting
for the Ambulance to leave Peter Ramsay walked by and exchanged a few 
words with us.  We returned to the Org and continued our picketing.
Peter Ramsay stayed  away from us and was quiet.  There was a fair
bit of traffic in and out of the Org but they all appeared to be
recruiters
and or photographers.  To make it interesting Kaeli and I decided to make
it harder for them to get a photo of us and held our signs to make it
harder for the photographers.  

Keith stayed his usual 110 feet away handing out flyers and talking to
people.  

We ended the picket early due to the heat and humidity.  Thank you all for
your hospitality as usual and the enjoyable company on a very warm day. 

See you again soon.
