Thanks to Roger, Catarina, Peter and Tilman, who helped me without knowing it (me leeching google groups) but foremost to Cyril, without whom it would have been impossible to make this memorial for Eric.
Perhaps some small points will change, like descriptions, but is okay as it is and the code seems okay as well.

Since no-one else has replied to this item, I thought I'd give my opinions.
It is a very sad story, somewhat reminiscent of the tale of Albert Jaquier. It is plainly true that Scientology does not help you to live a long life physically. Such a lot of Scienos are so absorbed with getting up the Bridge, they stop caring for their bodies. Cigarettes, coffee, junk food... What's a meat body anyway? Scn is like heroin in some ways. Not so strong perhaps, but like a morphine-based drug it blots everything else out, so you only care about your next fix. Plus, of course, you will spend everything you have to get it, as so many clams do.
I don't think it would be fair to blame Scn entirely for this story though. It seems as if Eric had a mental illness of some kind. Only eating garlic like that - well, of course you would get ill. A good Church would have given Eric advice about nourishing his body, so that he would get well again. However, one must take a certain amount of responsibility for oneself imho.
Could I mention the Seventh-Day Adventists here? They often live to a ripe old age, because they consider an ultra-healthy diet to be a gift of God.
How ironic that Scientology, a religion that claims to give you "knowing immortality from the cycle of birth and death" cannot do anything to stop their own members dying before their time.

Hello from Canada,
I've visited your site as a guest ALOT but finally decided to join. Just like you guys I want Co$ exposed and that malignant little troll misc(GAG)avi(PUKE)ge dethroned. I've read a lot of the stories on here, the voice and M Rathbun's blog about ex members horrors and stories of abuse and it sickens me that they(Co$) call themselves a religion, and even dare more to call themselves human beings...specically the 'high ups'. I know about so many of threm who died by 'suicide' while some are murders. Who the f**k do they think they're fooling??!! Other than the law. RIP all of them. Although Lisa M stuck with me, S Lonsdale, sad too. For some reason, Eric Rubio for me is the one that makes me cry everytime I hear his name, his story, see his pic. My heart just aches. For him and his family. They need to be held accountable for this and other crimes against humanity.My first post.
