I can't speak to the apparent problems with WBAI, although I've heard plenty. Also, since I do not know Dan Siegel, it is inappropriate for me make any comment as to his integrity. However, I DO know Casey Peters, and I can state with confidence and conviction that he is absolutely beyond reproach ethically! I have yet to see anyone else work as diligently or with such integrity as he and his wife have against such ridiculously vociferous opposition, while still maintaining a genuine dedication to fairness and honesty in the oversight of the all the recent Pacifica station elections. It is a thankless job, and I feel that he has coped as well as anyone could have with some of the agonizing twists and turns of these past elections. I was present during most of the ballot-counting at KPFA in Berkeley, and witnessed in person the kind of grief Casey had to start sorting out when "certain unfortunate realities" began to be alleged about the goings on within KPFA, in the runup to our elections here in Berkeley. I felt that he handled the situation well, pondered the necessary follow-through actions, and has done a good job of addressing those problems. According to a personal listener/sponsor friend of mine who still lives down in KPFK-land, there have been similar pains down there, where I used to live and volunteer. It's amazing to me that we peaceniks still insist on fighting about everything! There's much more work to be done to straighten out all the kinks, but steady progress is being made, even though the issues involved are complex. Anyway, please dispense with the name-calling, OK? All that does is make people mad, and certainly doesn't contribute anything toward the "general decorum" of our proceedings... If you have proof, that's something else altogether, but mere mudslinging just drags us all down. Happy New Year! !

Dan Siegel and Casey Peters of the Pacifica National Board are corrupt. Dan Siegel has been temporarily placed on the Pacifica National board for one month to sabatoge the elections and allow the WBAI, KPFA and Justice and Unity corruption to continue. - tom Fri, 09 Nov 2007 10:51:17 +0100
