ello, my name is Dennis Gatten, and here is a little bit about myself:

     I've been around the sun 49 times, riding on planet Earth. I was born in San Diego, California, but I grew up in Portugal, Wisconsin, and Minnesota (Dad was in the Navy). Then I went in the Navy and lived in Virginia, Connecticut, and South Carolina. I woke up in the Navy, wanting to not be there, and moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1976, December. I read the Dianetics book in 1977, took the personality test and a Communications Course in 1978. It wasn't until September of 1996 that I decided to persue Scientology in earnest. As you can see, that decision wasn't a quick thing! There is so much to learn here, and everything helps living become easier and more sensible.
