Atos:
Rainbow 6, AND The Teeth of the Tiger, which I hope you have had a chance to read.
And to oceanperch, it was the "Rajneeshies", the red-clad followers of the Bagwan Shree Rajneesh, that set up camp in Antelope, OR when I was a teenager in Portland. The 100+ bulletproof Rolls-Royces owned by the Bagwan is what I remember the most. They put Salmonella bacteria in salad bar items in several restaurants in The Dalles (which is due north of Antelope, on the Columbia River), sickening several hundred people. Their apparent goal was to AFFECT THE RESULT OF AN ELECTION for County Commissioner. Gee, where have I heard THAT before?
Thanks for the history on the leader and that cult.
Did he ever go to trial or did he flee the country?
The two Middle Eastern (?) beauties he kept by his side did they turn on him or assist him when he was wanted by authorities? I don't remember.
I remember the cults of those days seemed to be affluent yuppie types kinda of like what the Envirowayouttheres are from affluent backgrounds/parents.
