[amsat-bb] WA9JBQ Request (Kevin)

[Kevin]

    Brad,
     Now that I have had time to read most of the wd9ewk blogs and 
links, it's clear to me that he has an ax to grind against multiple 
people in the AMSAT organization, some of it going back years.

   The ink had barely dried on the ballots and he was already making 
claims of poor treatment, maybe some who have tangled with him in the 
past were not excited that he was elected, that's human nature.

    But seriously, his  Sept 30th entry "Unfortunately, AMSAT President 
Joe Spier K6WAO has not shown leadership in the transition to the 
newly-elected Board and its preparations for the upcoming meeting in 
Virginia, and this is disappointing. "  can you honestly look me in the 
eye and say this is acceptable for someone who has just got onto the BOD 
to say in a online blog? How could this ever be considered productive?

     And then you expect everyone to ignore that and welcome him? Then 
you read further and he proclaims that he is not sad at Joe resigning 
and that he had called for his resignation the previous summer over 
another matter!

   No , I'm sorry but the more I read the more I believe He came in with 
a attitude of wanting to make trouble.

  That's my opinion, others should read the blog and links from the 
beginning to end with a open mind  and ask, does this look like someone 
trying to make it work or someone looking for any reason to complain and 
then post it online to create trouble for AMSAT?

keep in mind you are seeing a one sided blog only from the person who is 
not happy.

Every member should read it, and then each decide for themselves if it's 
an honest effort for progress or one huge complaint session.
