   The corporation is, sure, but what they're selling isn't what the   
   corporation used to sell.  Miscaviage and the other crime bosses   
   have been reworking what Hubbard wrote, trying to remove some of   
   the more embarrassing and outright criminal stuff and plugging in

   believe was actually written by the insane sex-problem-ridden   
   creator of the criminal enterprise.
