RE: HLA ON FIRE?!

I lost the damn pool, I thought this fucking thing would be toast before Christmas.

Yes, I'll have to admit as well that as of May 31, 2007, I lost the pool also. My rationale for the school closing date was based on the end of the semester and not enough returning students to cover finances...instead they are keeping the price the same and significantly cutting the offerings. Why didn't I think of that???

My goodness you guys are predictable! ::roflmao::
When someone challenges an anti-HLA perspective, the anti-HLA'ers get threatened and throw temper-tantrums. It's fascinating to hear people who claim having been abused are themselves verbally abusive to others. Rather than boring myself and others about the predictable patterns I've seen from the anti-HLA'ers, please look at this link below:

I'll try to keep this short since my posts tend to look like legal briefs (they bore me some times). Yawn is right RB!
Here are the reasons I don't think Dr. B torched or hired someone to burn the place:
1. Insurance companies don't automatically pay a claim. In fact, they are pretty good at spotting insurance fraud. Any sign of this would delay or prevent payment. It's too much of a risk to wind up having to pay for a new building, a lawyer to defend a case of insurance fraud, and the present attorneys. By the way, the comment about Dr. B skulking aroun in a cat suit was just a joke. It seems as though someone took it too seriously.
2. It's hard to believe an HLA-supporter would try to commit the stupid act of insurance fraud around the same time as graduation. It would be an embarrassment, which isn't needed at this time. I think this was done by an anti-HLA'er (one of the delightful people from Fornits?) who is trying to embarrass HLA and try to close the school since it's still operating.
3. If someone were ridiculously stupid enough to commit insurance fraud, they would torch a building that isn't connected to others to minimize the collateral damage. According to the satellite view, there is one down by the lake, one across from the burned Academic Building, the Cafeteria, or the Gym. This person probably wanted to torch the middle building with the hope of burning the other two buildings on each side and possibly the surrounding forest.
Maybe you just need some hugs. I'm sending out this e-hug with much luv to all of those peeps, to use a hip colloquialism. ((O)) (that's a pathetic looking hug, but still full of love for all of you. I'm not good at these emoticons)
(No anti-HLA'ers were harmed during the scribing of this post)

Good to see you back Sybil. Hey did you get my question about whether or not you had seen anything going on that night? I only asked because you told us before that you like to wander around the campus in the dead of night.
As to your comments regarding the fire, I dont believe anyone on here has made a direct accusation against Len or any other hla puppet. People have however stated such a scenario wouldnt be difficult to imagine. You on the other hand are allegations that one of us was involved. This of course is baseless and makes no sense, nor does your claim have any sort of facts to back up. This however is predictable and expected. None of you lap dogs have ever been fond of facts, I cannot expect you to change now.
Per the comments you linked to, here was the response I offered.

Of course you were never quite able to handle responding to any of my questions, but if youve worked up the courage now feel free to get on it.

Hello. I am a former employee of HLA (an administration member) and I recently left due to the dire financial situation HLA finds itself in and the inability it has shown in meeting expenses and payroll. I'm not "disgruntled". I was a long time supporter and still believe that if the place were run correctly it could have great beneficial effects. Sadly, this is not the case.
I am not going to get into back-and-forth arguing over semantics or anything, but I would like to interject some perspective into this conversation.
I have followed this website and the HLA threads for years. Is there hyperbole? Yes, on both sides. Have some people lied about things? Yes, on both sides.
That being said, I can tell you all that the vast majority (maybe 90%) of allegations leveled against HLA are in fact true. I'm not going to go over all of the details ad nauseum; suffice it to say that HLA has been caught "dirty" on nearly all of the issues that have been posted here.
The lawsuit has merit and is so stunningly accurate in regard to the financial schemes regarding HLA and Ridge Creek that it was without doubt created with incredibly closely-held information and actual records (financial and other) that were provided from some very key players at HLA. Some of the things posted here are verbatim from financial records, email exchanges and conversations of administrative staff in closed meetings of only a handful of people. I know because I was there and what has been posted here is what happened in those meetings.
As for "Function Junction," I'm not exactly sure who he is, but I have a really good idea. I'm not here to "out" anyone, so I won't be posting anyone's names, but FJ is an HLA employee.
What FJ says here is carefully crafted to shift the focus off of HLA's bad behavior and to a certain degree it has been successful.
However, regardless of where the focus lies, the allegations from former staff, students and parents are nonetheless almost entirely true, with a few minor exceptions that aren't very important to the core issues. I think that this validation is owed to those who have been wronged either financially or by the treatment they received at HLA. You will never get that from anyone still deeply involved with HLA and trying to protect their own income. Those of us that have departed, however, feel no such constriction and are free financially and ethically to tell the truth.
I wish you all the best and the best of luck in the future.
