I'm sorry but I don't see where my last post ever got through. Pretty sure it was sent to the right place but I never saw it show up. Hmnn, wonder why... too critical? At any rate, not a member but reading all the mud being slung at two board members, who for the most part just seemed to have asked for some board accountability, this sure looks like a classic case of the kids getting caught with their hand in the proverbial cookie jar and they're now scurrying to cover it up from Mom&Dad. Sigh....

I agree with this assessment of the situation with one exception!!
AMSAT-NA is not a cookie jar, and these are not kids!!! IF in fact there is some legal liability here - then the responsible parties should be held accountable!! If that means prison time - then so be it!!! A thief is a thief and theft is illegal - let the chips fall where they should!!!
The LAST thing that should happen here is pillorying the whistleblowers assuming they are correct and without liability here!

I am saving the pillory for someone who does greater damage. :-) Please elect new blood, every organization needs it. That is all that is necessary.
