Why Is Elrond Hubbard So Famous?

Elrond Hubbard tried to bribe Greece in much the same way he tried to bribe Rhodesia promising to build many new schools for his students on Corfu and turn the island into a mecca of Scientology. The Greeks didn't really want that to happen, so eventually they kicked him out of their country. For three years, Elrond Hubbard's fleet sailed around the Atlantic Ocean with no particular destination or goal. They never stayed anywhere longer than six weeks. One crew member recalled, Elr H said we had to keep moving because there were so many people after him. If they caught up with him, they would cause so much trouble that he would be unable to continue his work.
