Bill, I get your point. I'm not the moderator of this forum and I never saw the inside of the Morgan Yacht building. However, I know a little bit about discussion forums, how they work and how they sometimes fail to work.
Yeah, it's a good idea to try to limit discussion to the topic. But the last thing you want to do is exclude others from the discussion. At least, that's the last thing I want to see you do, anyway. I want the word to get out on these places and the people who made themselves rich and powerful through them.
Mel Sembler gave money to Straight??? My Ass, he did! How much in ARs when you combine fees paid by parents, dontaions, grants?
Compare with APs, including a warehouse, florescent lights, staff on slave wages housed in group apartments, liability insurance.... what else? No housing, clothing or food expenses, parents covered all of that. What else.... let's see... there was no medical treatment, what little medical attention anyone got was paid for by their parents. There were no outings, no books, no teachers, no professional shrinks.... that leaves MO money for the few top execs who had control of roughly $100,000,000 in declared income (over and above expenses, I believe) over the course of a decade and a half of Program operation.
Dave Crock should have spent more time in math class and les time with his nose up certain crevices. Oh, and how much cash did Smell Sembler give to that flunky directly? And for what service?
