No, Fred, he's making a much broader accusation; in fact a series of broad accusations unsupported by any evidence.

He is referring to my disclosure that I may have briefly encountered Chip Berlet when I was in the National Lawyers Guild. I did not recuse on that basis as there was very little if any actual connection between us. I don't think membership or even active participation in the National Lawyers Guild forms a basis for recusal as there are a number of reasons why people join the National Lawyers Guild and participate in it. Other than involvement in legal work there is absolutely no test for membership. Successful participation is another story. I soon found out that since I did not support the Gang of Four I was considered chopped liver.

Please don't try to re-direct the questions, Jack, and please don't try to make them about me. You made insinuations about the Arbitration Committee, please clarify. I'll repeat the questions:
- Do you think that the Committee is trying to "purge right wingers"?
- Do you imagine that there are no "right wingers" on the Committee
itself? 3. Why would you insinuate that Cberlet is any more the "friend and colleague" of members of the Arbitration Committee than are any of the other parties to the case?
