"The decision not to order three bricks has been rescinded," Citizens for a Better Clearwater wrote in a letter received this week by John Merrett, an attorney for the Scientology critics. "Upon receipt, these bricks will be placed in the Cleveland Street Gas Light Alley with other inscribed bricks."

The brick request by Jeff Jacobsen and Stacy Brooks, both staff members at a Scientology watchdog group named the Lisa McPherson Trust, touched off a tremor downtown, demonstrating how seemingly innocuous efforts can become controversial because of the relationship between the church and its opponents.
