I finally got Pablo Escobar Grant's book. Truly hilarious, and it explains a good deal. When pedddling All About Receiving Cash, Escobar-Grant refers frequently to his average middle-class upbringing. His family emmigrated from South Africa, and his Dad, who was no stranger to cults, left. His "Mum" was into rebirthing (that practise ranks among the more foolish I have ever seen), and his step-father, after visitng Kids, decided child torture was great. So much for just an average kid until the "disease" consumed him. And, as has been the case with every AARC victim I have seen so far, the mother just loved the Speedy Creek Pervert. His step-dad was partly to blame for the Wizard getting his troglodyte fingers on the Rotary Club money. Why is it that Escobar-Grant and Mrs. Natalie Oldcomer went into the "Adolescent" treatment center at 21? Oh right, their mothers were willing to fork over the money.
The Wiz is very much like the psychopath with whom I had to deal. He's ignorant and not very well-spoken, but he can sway a particular type of victim, in this case females with troublesome children, and he instinctively maneuvers to bring down his prey.

David Grant would make an excellent witness in any case against All About Receiving Cash. What he percieves as his positive "experience" in AARC is so very clearly an indoctrination by a cult, and in particular by the leader, that he could sink the AARC.
One of the more telling incidents in the book is Grant's description of his disappointment at not getting to see the Wiz at one point early in his mind-molding.
There is a cult in Edmonton run by a plumber that attracted a number of people from Calgary. The leader lived with two very fetching young ladies, sisters, and eventually their parents joined the cult. This guy used many of the same techniques as the Wiz, among them making the members of the flock wait for his blessed contact.
In earlier threads in this forum Grant claimed that the book was not about AARC. The first mention of the Leader, or Executive Director, comes in the prologue. 'Nuff said.
This is not intended as a personal attack on Pablo. The experience he had as a little feller is sad. His mother gave him to a cult leader, and though he was an adult at the time, it is still tragic. However, Mr. Grant has been unable to break away from this cult and the charisma of it's grasping, depraved leader.
