Keep in mind Landmark is very aggressive using lawsuits to intimidate into silence anyone who says boo about Landmark. Only those with deep pockets or understanding and devoted pro bono lawyers can fight back.
Any documentation on this ? I mean supressive actions taken by LEC against newspapers, magazines, televised or radio media that have said critical things about Landmark, EST, or Erhard ? In law, truth is an "absolute defense"... if they really said it or did it, they can't stop you from exposing them. Kind of charming how fast they backpedalled their action against Rick Ross once the ugly possibility of extensive discovery proceedings reared its horned little head.... I'm sure Art Schreiber, General Counsel, is busily reading these forums as we write them....
Interesting thing Art Schreiber said a while back, on June 19, 1996:
"Landmark Education is not est. Landmark Education was formed in February, 1991 and is an employee-owned company which offers educational courses in 12 countries, including the Netherlands. est was not turned into Landmark Education and does not give courses under the name Forum. The Landmark Forum delivered by Landmark Education is not the est Training "
Which, of course, may be technically true.... but rather curiously hinges on this bit of language....
"est was not turned into Landmark Education"
Don't you love how they use that coy little "e" in est ? It's so refreshingly unpretentious, so..... so.... ummmm, "real"
But, where were we, Oh, right, "est was not turned into Landmark Education"....
Soooooo..... Mister Schreiber, Esq., how then DID Landmark Education come into being ? Did it materialize in the middle of an empty room, training manuals and everything ? Where then DID the prinicpal actors in Landmark Education come from ? Were any of the offices or facilities used by "est" then used by LEC ? You can imagine these folks in the hands of a relentless New York litigator, guys who will depose EVERYBODY, for hours at a time ? Comb through their internal documents ? Track down anybody and everybody and get their sworn statements.....
Maybe not such a good idea after all....
