RE: [UC] A second press release from UCD
The reason that you didn't get the press release about the three new baby tigers at the Philadelphia Zoo is not because Pete Hoskins and the rest of the board are hiding information from you, it's because you're not a member of the PRESS. By definition PRESS releases go to the PRESS where they pile up on the floor next to the fax machine. UCD's press release made it to the list a lot faster than any other press release from any west philly entity I can think of, which is hardly secret. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Glenn A secret press release is just very very new to me, and I'm not that all together, as you've read about on the list.
Re: [UC] A second press release from UCD
None of that surprises me, but I just wanted to be sure that you've noticed the impact of your posts. Melani Lamond Mel, Do you think the poor UCD is engaged in the big cover-up because they're afraid of my posts? Are you afraid to disclose information honestly because of me? If I have that effect, I need to ask myself some serious questions. Melani, I'm sorry. Tell Lewis that I'm sorry too. If Lewis or you are excited to disclose the whole truth and nothing but the truth, I promise to behave myself and will not ask a bunch of lunatic questions. A secret press release is just very very new to me, and I'm not that all together, as you've read about on the list.

Re: [UC] A second press release from UCD
Melani, If UCD has a page on their web site called, University City District News, why would they not post an official press release on it? You and some unidentified listserv character have it. But wait Melani, you refused to answer any questions about this UCD matter. Now, you have the previously unknown, June 8, press release. You and UCD are getting me very confused and a bit suspicious.
