Buzz, have you contacted Kevin August to explain why his misguided idea of running a referral service might be a bad idea; since he has no credentials, expertise to do such a thing?
Most postings rere have attacked his idea, not him as a person, IMO.
This "oh, that's a bad idea" may have been the feelings towards Scheff, when she first started PURE. Just imagine how many parents have been conned into enrolling their children into abusive programs because Scheff has a "bad idea" and all of Sheff's friends sat back and did NOTHING!
