Thank you for having the guts to join this dialog. It can?t be easy to be the only x-staff member on board. It?s really appreciated.

Let me second that and also contradict you. I agree, it took some guts and some faith of conviction for John to join this conversation. Props for that. But he's not the only former staffer to post here. He's just the only one willing to use his real name. More props.

But I agree w/ the rest of what you've said. If honesty were really even a minor priority, let alone the most important rule, John and all the rest would have immediately dispelled the rediculous myth that they could read our minds. Instead, they fostered and encouraged it.

The will to learn is an intrinsic motive...The will to learn becomes a 'problem' only under specialized circumstances like those of a school where the curriculum is set, students confined, and a path fixed.

If I may, thought I'm not Stripe...

It's not usually shady to receive payments on a mortgage thru. However, it's shady as hell to cry poor mouth and trick vulnerable people into donating funds and volunteer hours for years on the pretense that it's all going to save skidrow junkies from a sad demise.

The reality is that the money went to make Art and his little gang of mindfuckers extremely wealthy.

Jails and prisons are the complement of schools; so many less as you have of the latter, so many more you must have of the former

Hey thanks Antigen, glad to know I was clear.

There are other ex-staff members here?  I had no idea.

Anonymous:
really, I am not being sarcastic.  The thought hadn't occured to me.  I wonder if any of them were there when I was?

Antigen:
Oh, I didn't think you were being sarcastic. And yeah, there's at least one other former staffer who reads and posts here frequently. And I suspect at least one other did a drive by come down a few months back.
