hasn't the Church Universal and Triumphant moved, or changed focus, since their leader has Alzheimer's?  I thought I read something about that not too long ago.
I know when they were 'in their heyday' I had everything I could find about them, but since have discarded most of that over the last few years...

I will be interested too ... in anything you find....
Keep it on the list..*big smile*... Many minds long to know more

  Jeff--

  I've tried to research the same thing without a lot of success. I do 
  know that the well that the CUT began to drill is no longer an active 
  problem (as you say), and also that the USGS was charged (probably in 
  the 1990s) with determining the relationship between the La Duke Hot 
  Spring and those at Mammoth. Maybe you'd have some luck through USGS 
  sources.
