Anybody ready to do some WORK? Like attempting to organize around a solutions...like a Pacifica Listener Member Union? Or, do you have a better idea/suggestion? This board has given little more then lip-service to this obvious option to the incessant bitching and moaning, and chasing behind the next topic. So what are the true/real motivation and interest of the handful who religiously post but have no answers or unwillingness to DO SOMETHING even if its wrong! What's been going on here? ...made in america Kevin White <cuitlacoche1@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: I think what's left on this board are the ones forced out by the new Pacifica. We each, with exceptions discuss in a moment, are outcasts from the network. We have failed in following the rules of patronage and reward that has been the silent policy of Pacifica dispite all the lip service about volunteers. Now the exceptions are Fred Nguyen. He follows the patronage system and has gotten many rewards in the form of microphone opportunities. My friend Melinda is still an insider. However I feel she may really soon ask the wrong question to the wrong person and then she too will be one of us. Nalini was the first cast out of the new Pacifica. She's been treated worse than any of us by far. And yeah, Nalini, you can be a bit of a bitch sometimes; but as it has recently been said, "bitch is the new black." As to Lorraine, she was someone I loved and respected. I hope, in death, that she is not disappointed.

I've been bored. Sorry. Well, I didn't mean to hurt you or make you feel like you had to apologize. I just wanted to suggest that all there is left here on this board is fighting, and maybe that's why you're tired of it. You should be tired of it. It's fucking exhausting. You've got a lot of good sense and a lot to give. I hope you'll put your energies into something that can nurture you at the time. Hope your husband is feeling better! Regards, Nalini PS Richard's count for the same period was 125. :) PPSS Here's a great book tip. I just read it and it's fantastic.
