Thanks for your reply Paul.

I have also  read the book more than once.

I cannot use it as a solo process.

But it has a lot of good other data in it besides  the process. 

I would like to find a good twin to run it co audit style.

 I would classify it as a guide to being a  
 good preclear, ready to make the best of one's approach to start on  
 the trek to going Clear in Scn and probably most paths.



You also must always remember that Hubbard's ability as a writer is second to 
none.  He was also a science fiction writer, so his imagination was also second 
and none and his imagination gets woven into facts from time to time at least. 
Maybe more often that we can imagine. 

He was a top notch notch  yarn spinner and sales person. 

Imagination is also cheap.
