[Kzyxtalk] new lows in self-important humbug

As well to ask the moon why it shines...

I just caught up on your latest addition to your conspiracy theory. What
possible financial responsibility do you think that the volunteer
directors of a non-profit corporation, and the corporation itself for
that matter, have. You threaten suit, but you have to have a
documentable financial loss to sue for compensation. Sue because you
didn’t get the programming you wanted, now there is a laugh.

I also am unable to make heads nor tails of your statements regarding
the 990 tax form or your comment about how the station has already
released member contact information. They haven’t. Why not list a
specific circumstance that you think is improper along with the law or
regulation that you think it violates, and then explain what the
complaint in your suit would specify? SM
