Glenn,
Karen didn't "confirm your accounts"; she said she agreed with you.
Karen particularly agrees with you in your intense anger over the 40th &
Pine proposal. She is angry not just at people who oppose her, but at
undecided people who acknowledge both sides of the dispute. It's a
common, if unfortunate, feature of extreme partisanship. I don't think
extreme partisanship is healthy in this issue, but it's possible to hold
strong views in an honest way, as Karen does.
Karen listed several points on which she felt she had been dissed by a
group she is a member of, that inherently owes her some duties. We don't
have to agree with her take on them, but they were all cogent and
specific, not embroidered with emotive interpretation.
The problem with your habit of accusing everyone you disagree with of
being a "conspirator" is that you never adduce any evidence of an actual
conspiracy. There are many, many reasons why factions disagree with each
other and conspiracy is seldom the best explanation for either side's
behavior. With no real evidence, it's just empty partisan rhetoric.
In the case at hand, one could just as easily accuse the anti-hotel
faction of being a "conspiracy". Clearly it holds private meetings and
off-line strategy discussions, etc. But that's the way of the world!
There's nothing wrong with it. Both sides can do it.
To charge a conspiracy without meaningful evidence is untruthful. Let's
all lay low on this sort of talk for a while. There are other ways to
explain conflict. Better to have partisanship without falsity.
For instance, what you just said below: There was never any such thing
as the "UCD/FOCP Quality of Life Task Force" (a now-obscure issue that
surfaced briefly around 2001, I think). There were two separate groups
in two separate bodies. It was complex. People who worked with you then
(that was before my time) said you never seemed to grasp which body you
were working with at any given time.

Hahaha. I love it when West details my lies from events he didn't attend.
When I detailed the UCD/FOCP Quality of Life 0+1Task force for the list, he
also detailed my lies in his brilliant condescending manner to you little
people. Even when he is not present, he can explain my bad and evil nature to
all of you because none of you are brilliant like Mr. Tony West-hahaha.
Of course the non-existant but veracious, Karen, confirmed my accounts in
question.
