Rich's behavior is totally thuggish.  Am I to be intimidated into silence?
Mocked into submission?  Perhaps I don't know when to give up.  But I don't
believe that Richard Wallace equals this Foundation.  I don't believe that
his personal problems, regardless of their clinical diagnosis, ought to
preoccupy the conversation among the members of this community.  This
behavior is so destructive, so unethical, so shameful, so base.

Rich has chosen to splatter this dispute into a more public domain.  So be
it.  He says that those who disagree with him have "stabbed him in the
back".  He asks for public advice on how to terminate me.  He makes a
pretense of being concerned about "fiduciary duties", rules of
governance for not-for-profit foundations, and so on, but this is the
same individual who told me that he would have no problem stealing money
that was raised under the auspices of this Foundation.

I do not believe that Rich has the right to ignore the decisions made by
the board of this foundation, and I do not believe that he is ethically
or morally correct in his persistent skewering of the facts in this
situation.

I also don't think anyone can out-shout him.

So I am pretty much at a loss.
