You all know CS and I are pretty much in agreement. When not, I reply. Even I felt buried by the speed, high volume and intensity that was being generated, fostered and perpetuated. And, I noted it and asked for a step back and a deep breath. That said, some of the mostly interpersonal, unresolvable conflicts of opinion between select individuals become a recycling of things already said many times, just with increasing volume. Granted, new people enter the conversation all the time, but I’ve found myself wanting to ask people to go shuffle off to DM or request the moderators designate some discussions UCBP (Unresolvable Conflict Between Posters). I have no clue how they do their task and don’t want to try or learn. I would be known as the Red King, if you get my point, er, blade’s edge.

This is Doug Kennedy, a member of the TCC.  First, I want to thank all of you for your comments over the past 18 months.  Your comments and those in other forums, whether I disagree with them or not,

A few months ago, one of the posters here offered some great advice I thought.  Type what you intend  to say. Set it aside for a few minutes and look at it again before you press "post". Does it

Normally I wouldn't discuss user issues, but given his profile pic and signature I'm going to make an exception: Regardless of the impression given by his profile picture and signature line, Cyni

Please explain. I get the “not [yours] to give,” but your Council is free to release, compare and rebut, no? It’s hard to feel good about refusing disclosure while saying, “They are clearly wrong” without allowing anyone else the ability to see, assess and come to their own conclusion. Simply, it looks like hiding and hiding usually means something is damaging in the report. Just me? 

No not just you.

We have the hearing agenda (at least the current version).  Basically, from what I can tell, primary battles over discovery requests.

  • Moving Insurers vs Eric Green - Discovery
  • BSA vs TCC and many others - Discovery
  • Paul Mones request to no longer be counsel for client

  • Law firm fighting against insurance companies over subpoena of aggregators

Whenever I ask for financials, I always get the "Why do you want to know?"  To me, that is the first sign someone is hiding something.  I even got this when I asked for IRS 990s.

At least for the IRS 990s, I wrote back, "Because the law says you have to provide them."

Lucky they didn't ban you. Amazing for an organization with ideals like Scouting, that so many corners of the org are ran so unethically and secretively. Not just the child abuse, but regarding finances and local politics as well.

As a board member, I receive council information.  Since this chapter 11, the legal counsel requested that we not release any information.  Whenever the attorney advises that the information can be released, the council will do so.  My actions are in keeping with my obligations as a board member and in keeping with the Scout Law.

My SE did take adverse action...removed me from all council and district positions...and never had the courtesy to let me know...had to hear it from other volunteers when they were submitting rosters for training staffs and renewing district/council positions.

Article from the L.A. Times today: Boy Scouts payout disputed (pagesuite.com)

Note 4th paragraph 😉 

Has anyone seen an article with actual sex abuse survivors saying to vote for this plan?  Between twitter, Facebook, this forum and news articles .... every single claimant I can find wants to reject this plan.  

Note I still expect a large number of yes votes.  I think a lot of people will just listen to their attorneys and the coalition is telling them to vote yes.  Plus, all who signed over power of attorney to coalition lawyers will be yes votes (unless they take back that power of attorney).  However, the public facing claimants seem to be consistently rejecting the deal.  So, if it passes, would the judge consider that as part of her ruling on the plan?

Just got an email from AIS recommending I vote yes. Repeatedly.

And Tim Kosnoff one of the original AIS lawyers says “ I don’t know what to say, really, about AIS joint venture partner Ken Rothweiler’s statements about this plan. I want you to understand that I repudiate them for being false and misleading. I can’t control what he says but he not being truthful w anybody.”

I understand completely if not, but if you would be willing to share any elements of the argument, beneath and between the begging, I would be grateful. I’m grasping to understand how they are building, supporting and sustaining their mantra that this is “the best we can do” and “there’s more to come, pinky swear.” I understand the Consortium that shall not be named is gearing up for an internal dog and pony show. If only I had a ticket. Where is my invisibility cloak when I need it? Meh.

Ken Rothweiler’s

The Ken Rottweiler of champagne wishes and caviar tears fame? 

TK, if you’re lurking, please feel free to appropriate that line. In all due disregard for modesty, it’s a beaut! It deserves some legs beyond this forum.

My recollection is, the all encompassing numbers tossed about by both AIS and the Consortium that shall not be named have far fewer clients who signed up and gave them powers to act. Anyone know the numbas? I realize the are still seeking POAs, but there were some stats used to refute their previous assertions that they could deliver the votes on a platinum platter.
