HLA DOESNT HELP YOU, YOU HELP YOURSELF

[Short Bus]

So, how the fuck are we gonna hit up the tables if I don't know where you are!?

[Troll Control]

Tell you what, son.  I'm really busy with work this month and have to go California, Japan and Hong Kong in February plus an ice-fishing weekend the last week of the month in northern Vermont.  So that leaves March to think about hitting the casinos.

Once my schedule gets cleared I'll give you a number where you can get hold of me and we'll set the trip, ok?  Fair enough?  I'll grab my brother on the way and we'll have at it.

I just can't give out my particulars on this board because there are some really sick individuals head-hunting me.

[Short Bus]

Sounds like a plan, and I understand where you're coming from with the posting of info and shit, esp with the fruit-loops that "work" at HLA.

[Troll Control]

Alright then, my man.  I'm quittin' fer tonite.  I'll get back to you later.

[Short Bus]

Take it easy dude..

All wishes have been granted...

"Thanks for posting, bro.



Can I ask you some questions to clarify some issues being poo-pooed by HLA Truth, the marketing arm of HLA?



Sexual relations between staff and students:

-What do you know about this?

-Which staff (names/positions) were "getting with" patients?

-How old were the victims?  Under 16?

-How did HLA deal with employees who were brought to their attention for innapropriate relationships with patients?

-What about kids having sex with eachother?



Restrictions:

-What kind of work did you do?

-Did you ever do any maintenance work (repairing buildings/filling potholes/landscaping)?

-How long were you on restrictions each time?

-What did your diet consist of while on restrictions?

-Did you do meaningless work like moving rockpiles?

-Did you ever perform services that directly enriched staff (cutting wood for their homes, etc)

-How was your schooling handled while on restrictions? (HLA claims academics to be its primary purpose)

-What about forced exercise?  What kind/how much?



Your education:

-Did you earn a high school diploma while at HLA?

-How many hours each day did you attend classes?

-Were you ever removed from class and forced to exercise during school time?

-What was the quality of HLA's study program?

-What percentage is "self-study"?



The program:

-Describe "realizations."

-Were you ever forced to confess any "misdeeds" under the threat of punishment?

-Were you ever punished as a group for the mistake of an individual?

-Talk about the seminars.  Were you sleep deprived?  Exercised to exhaustion?  Deprived of regular meals and hydration?

-Were you ever told you needed to be "broken down and rebuilt"?

-Did counselors ever curse at you or demean you by calling you vulgar names?  Did they do this to all the kids (slut/whore/asshole, etc)?



I have a lot more issues that require more attention from a first-hand recent participant, but I don't want to go crazy here with too much to start.



I'll be looking forward to your responses and thank you in advance.
