I found a posting by Clare tearing a new asshole into Dan.
Dan Bostdorf has our best interests at heart and other Myths
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of you may remember me as I too shared the Elan experience. My name =
is Clare Woodman. I was a resident of Elan Eight from march of 1982 =
until my graduation in december of 1983. My experience was life saving . =
Period.
I am one of a handful of graduates that alongside a very talented group =
of degreed staff works to continue the Elan tradiiton of helping young =
people redesign their lives. I have been at it for close to 17 years and =
look forward to the future.
David , you know me , and I remember you. Despite whatever yours and =
others feelings may be , I tihnk it's safe to say that I have never been =
known to be anything other than upfront with anyone at Elan. Thus I =
present the following :
Joseph Ricci has absolutley NO intentions whatsoever of suing anyone =
other than Dan Bostdorf , this he made clear to him last night on the =
phone. Deanna , ( the admissions director ) will post more details on =
this tomorrow , but rest assurred , Mr. Bostdorfs assertion that Joe is =
going "suit" crazy is ludicrous.
Dan , I know you though you probably don't remember me. I was around =
during the Campaigning days.Now as then , you remain an abusive , =
manipulative, exploitive oppurtunist who has now managed to weasel your =
way into the graces of an Elan Graduate , Peter Moore , who will =
probbably lose his job for his mesrepresentation of the truth. You =
don't care , as long as you can rescusitate your ridiculous publication =
and the checks start rolling in. You're a You insult the intelligence of =
any free thinker that reads your posts. How is one supposed to respond =
to your most recent post regarding Joseph Ricci , should we "rally =
around you" and" forever be in debt" to you for your courageous way of =
pursuing "the truth". C'mon Dan , as you reside in the Virgin Islands =
enjoying the good life don't try to pretend that your one of "us" =
looking out for our "best interests"and yes,I earned the right to say =
"us" , which you're not one of and never will be.=20
I don't ever recall appointing you as my "spokesperson", the incinuation =
is an insult to my intelligence. Let's be real Dan , you've always been =
out for the almighty Dollar. You under estimate us "Elan" people to =
think that you can prostitute us for $14.63.Interesting , we bare our =
souls and you rake in the cash.......hmmmm. I find it amazing that you =
have found a way to "piggyback" your sleezy publication to the Moxley =
case.What poor taste. Eventually , people will catch on to your game , =
as usual , you'll wear out your welcome there and will have to move on , =
your only mistake is that now you've shown your colors on the interent =
for the world to see. "Continent jumping" won't solve that for you. =
What goes around comes around.......
As far as the articles from the 70's are concerned and the relevance to =
todays events , simply this :
David , you printed on this site either a direct excerpt or =
reconstitution of Bostdorfs publication as reflected in the credit noted =
on the bottom. While you feel you may be presenting the truth and only =
the truth , in this case you're mistaken. Just because it's in a book =
doesn't make it fact. Another glaring example of Bostdorfs exploitive =
abilities , he obviously doesn't care if you unknowingly misrepresent =
the truth after all his name is not on this site thus he has no =
exposure. And it's of little significance that you preface it with =
"according to prior residents interviewed for the book............" The =
outrageous assertions are disturbing , ridiculous and unfounded. The =
articles pressented to this site explain the end result of the =
investigations. Sure , the media is oftentimes innacurate , distorted =
and slants information but let's be real , as someone else wrote on one =
of the posts somewhere , if the assertions were true Elan would have =
been closed down long before your parents or mine ever had the =
oppurtunity to enroll us.
David , history on the site shows that you are most comfortable =
responding point by point to whatever is written. Please know that this =
post is not designed to attack you and if I fail to respond to your =
response it is not out of arrogance. Frankly this is the most I've typed =
in several years , it's not my strong suit thus , in all honesty I will =
not be quick to reply , anything lengthy that is. The only reason I'm =
doing this now is because , like everyone else here , I feel compelled =
to add my thoughts.
On a different note it was good to see David L and Dennis M entries in =
the guest book. It's always nice to hear how Elan "Alumni" are doing.
Ken , I don't know you but have heard alot about you , all positive. =
Jeffrey and I are good friends and he also speaks well of you . Your
latest post seems to add a breath of sanity to all of this.
Please try to overlook any grammatical errors, it's late.
