Oh, that I can say for sure is not correct. I think there may have been 
one or two fired employees, but there was a large cross-section in ACT; 
that was probably part of the problem, because all they had in common 
was an agreement that things were not good as they were.

Actually, it has had quite a bit of secondary influence. Unfortunately, 
the handwriting on the somewhat controversial Mahatma letter where it 
says that Theosophy will be a "cornerstone" makes it hard to read 
whether it says "of the new religion" or "of the new religions". The 
latter is certainly coming true.
