[UUPoly-L] more on the IA blog

[Valerie White <valerie@valeriewhite.org>]

Satureday, I was sitting here on the porch at Quillen at Ferry Beach 
when a familiar figure  towing a rolling duffle came up the back 
steps.  Gini Courter leaned over and gave me a hug and a kiss on the 
cheek.  After she settled herself in one of the Adirondack chairs, I 
asked her if she was aware of a blogger claiming to be a UU minister 
serving a congregation in MA who was accusing the leadership of 
nefarious activities.  She wasn't.  So I summarized the 
accusation:  that the recent action limiting IA's was targeted at 
UUPA.  The ensuing narrative she gave me describing the evolution of 
the IA decision, involving a number of "town meetings" and concern 
about the quality of programming at GA, sounded completely 
credible  and coherent.  I am confident that there is NO truth to the 
allegation in the blog.  Moreover, I find it hard to believe that her 
affectionate greeting was a mask for any institutional hostility.
