San Diego Business Journal/May 27, 2008
The San Diego chapter of the controversial Church of Scientology is
moving its focus to La Mesa with the May 21 purchase of a Coleman
College campus at 7380 Parkway Drive.
The Church of Scientology's San Diego offices are located at 1330 Fourth
Ave. between A and Ash streets.
The church purchased the new site for $9.3 million. The two buildings,
which are 53,400 square feet and 11,000 square feet, will be used as an
educational campus, said the broker on the deal, Vince Provenzano with
Commercial Properties.
Originally built in 1962, the buildings were the site of La Mesa Bowl
before they were remodeled in 1981 and used by Coleman College as a
computer center.
The new site will provide more parking and visibility, said Provenzano."

La Mesa's Coleman College building has apparently closed. Up until the
late '80s this was La Mesa bowl. The original driveway and entrance are
still intact but who knows what the plans for the structure are."

[Wikipedia]
The Enigma machine is any of a family of related electro-mechanical
rotor machines that have been used to generate ciphers for the
encryption and decryption of secret messages. The Enigma was invented by
German engineer Arthur Scherbius at the end of World War I.[1] It was
used commercially from the early 1920s and was adopted by military and
governmental services of a number of countries — most notably by Nazi
Germany before and during World War II.[2] A variety of Enigma models
were produced, but the German military model, the Wehrmacht Enigma, is
the version most commonly discussed." [take note barbara schwarz (sieg
