Mr. David Miscavige Chairman of the Board,
Religious Technology Center
Opening Address
In honor of L. Ron Hubbard’s Birthday 1996

     And, they also represent the citizens of Tilden, Nebraska, L. Ron Hubbard’s birthplace.

     One community leader there put it in perspective:

     “We may not be the largest city in America, or the largest city in the state for that matter—or even the county—but we have L. Ron Hubbard.

     “He was born here and he’s one of ours!”

     L. Ron Hubbard had a unique ability to leave an indelible impression wherever he went. And his legacy persists even where he didn’t go. His influence and the power of his technology is nothing less than miraculous.

     And those miracles happen in amazing places.

     The Ensenada State Prison, located in a desolate Mexican region of Baja California, is a cruel, desperate place.

     One statistic will tell you all you need to know: 80% of the inmates are also heroin addicts.

     Yet, in that prison, 47 inmates have taken over a room and established their own Narconon drug rehabilitation program, led by a Scientology Volunteer Minister, who is a graduate of the Narconon administrator training at the Chilocco international training facility in Oklahoma.
