rumor control

[bill london <london@moscow.com>]

Doug et al:
I applaud your continuing dialog, and hope in this spirit of openness
that you will respond to rumors that are now circulating in Moscow.

First, following the purchase of that old cable company building south
of the Post Office last year for your New St. Andrews College, is it
true that you have purchased the GTE building adjacent to Friendship
Square and are negotiating to buy the Moscow Hotel?

Second, applying the same logic regarding your abhorence for the public
school system for its pluralism and inclusiveness and all the rest, what
would you like to see for the future of other institutions, like the
public library system and the city's parks system?  After all, there are
books about gays in the library and the gay pride events are allowed to
take place in the park.

Third, what is your goal regarding the presence of the gay community on
the Palouse?
