I'm heartbroken. Look, I've looked at Glenn's complaints for years. I ran for the board mainly to help him defend the Festival against the stuff he was complaining about. It took me about five months to form a far more critical opinion of Glenn than you realize. My experience has shown me that Glenn functions on the same level of integrity as the Rev. Fred Phelps. But you can earn your own experience. Get together with him. Have coffee. Sit down. Ask him to give you the "entire story," start to finish. Ask critical questions. Ask for evidence. Subject him to the same level of scrutiny you'd give the FOCP. Ask him why he's so hostile, why he accuses people of being shills for Penn, and why, when anyone questions his claims, he accuses them of being stupid, gullible, and ignorant. Ask him about the various roles of "community activist" he claims for himself, and what he actually did to claim them. Ask him what, precisely, is it about the park's redesigns that make it corporate and yuppified or whatever term he uses these days. Try to pin down what his complaints actually are. Even better, try to work with him. You'll find out about Glenn Moyer soon enough. ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
