Trey, I did get major feces about doing a piece on the WKPP. Bill Renneker reportedly threw a fit because he thought his Brazil cave diving piece got bumped in favor of the WKPP piece--it didn't, his article was submitted after the issue was already set up. Lamar was supportive, I talked to him about it and he had no problem that I could discern with running articles about the WKPP. The Usual Suspects is the correct phrase, BTW, to describe those that have a terminal case of the ass for the WKPP and anyone who says anything nice about it. Now, my guess is that the Mac computer BS that Lee was running probably came from Bill. I believe that partially because someone suggested that it did and because a while back I saw Bill and some other "insiders" and mentioned to them that I had found some papers that Shannon had transferred to me when I was Editor and wondered to whom I should send them, Beth or the Board. Somehow it came back to me that Bill went to a meeting and told someone there that I had some "equipment" that belonged to the Board. Rumors. This was a second-hand report too, so maybe he actually said that I had some equipment that the BOD wished they had and wasn't I a nice guy and all . . . ya right. Later, JoeL PS--See why I'm so glad to be no longer involved personally in cave politics? Here I am in an online list discussion of it and I'm remembering it all and I already feel dirty again.
