Board made it clear that it has had enough of the failed management style that
defines the BEP and is demanding positive change, even if that means
dealing with painful realities such as Howell/Okemos. I'm waiting for the day
when BEP management is forced to explain why it created a super route for the
operator who obtained evidence of criminal action on the part of the
assistant program manager, while failing to make a logical and necessary
change for the sake of keeping another facility healthy and economically
viable.</FONT></DIV>

opinion, the failure of blind licensees to not prosecute valid claims of

for personal reasons alone, simply sit back on their hands and allow the
illegal and unethical actions to occur, and gibing the violators an attitude
that they can repeat such biolations over and over because the know that are

answer to addressing corruption is not to turn one’s head as if to not see
the corruption, but rather to face head-on and stare down the evil one
witnesses. To sit back and pretend to believe that failure to confront
and address the corruption and evil, believing it is noble to not defend
one’s rights for the good or sake of anotheris simplyfurther promotes future
evil acts by the original wrong-doer, ultimately injuring a much longer list
of individuals in the future. That is the ultimate result when a
seemingly noble act of not appropriately acting does to advance corruption
and evil.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial color=black size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Bill, over the
years, I have seen many intelligent, morally upright, well-intentioned blind
person come and go from the BEP operator “active participation” scene.
In my opinion and observation, the vast majority exit the scene believing
that they as an individual cannot have or make a positive impact on that
which is corrupt or evil. A fewer number decide to “go-along-to get-along”,
because they relize the “price” or “cost” to them and their future
materialism is much too expensive for doing that which is right and
just. The individuals have witnessed not only the corruption and evil,
they also have either seen and/or experienced the further corruption and
evil associated with retaliation and retribution for the courageto stand up
for what is right and just, and stand firm against corruption and
evil. Then there are a much smaller group of individuals I call the
“sell-outs”, or as they are likely to define themselves as the “opportunity
seekers”. These are the ones that believe that “survival of the
fittest” or “eat-others-before-you get-eaten”, is the only method of
survival in the daily jungle of life, for after all, it truly is a jungle
out there in business, and one certainly must fend for one’s self, if one is
to get-ahead and survive, they truly believe. This minority in any
organization tends to cozy up to the leader of the pack, knowing that there
is strength in numbers, and that sticking together one can truly
survive. It is the attitude of rugged individualism, “what’s in it for
me”, and “I’ve got your back, and you’ve got my back, and the “rules are
there for others to follow, but not me” system of operation. In their
jungle-environment mind, it is not in their best interest to act in the best
interest of the entire jungle inhabitants. Each and every one in the
pack prowl the intense jungle to capture that which will fulfill their
personal needs, of course at the cost of the less connected and astute
members of the community. Then, as I once heard it described by one
blind individual, the individual pack members drag their captured bounty
back to their cave, disappearing and not being seen, as they savor the
pleasure of their rugged individualism andhedonism, while doing the most
minimal to preserve and protect that which they have gained, at a huge cost
to the entire organization. There is no longer any reason to stick
around for the good, right and just benefit of the majority of the members
of the organization.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

an even more tiny minority that get involved, stay involved, and confront
and stare down corruption and evil at any personal cost, simply and
authentically because it is the only noble, moral, right and just approach
and action to take. I can think of a few blind persons, formerly
employed within the BEP that fit within this tiny minority of blind persons
willing to act on behalf of all blind individuals, despite the cost
personally. . <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

have confused the case of which you reference and the case in which I
represented Ms. Rothenhauser’s brother, Mr. Mark Rothenhauser. I
simply point out your confusion so that you are aware that Ms. Rothenhauser
was not a “PARTY” to Case No. 2009-1705, therefore, Ms. Rothenhauser has no

“cheating” going on by the illegal, favoritism, and, discriminatory acts of
the BEP management, and that “cheating” is in the form of ALL licensees and

know everyone is very interested in the ruling involving the howell
rest area at the recent Commission board meeting. First off I
would like to inform everyone that Marlene Rotherhauser has asked me
to be her representative in this matter so please forward any
relevant information on this case to me. Secondly I would
personally like to thank Risa for her interest in and dedication to our
program. And third but not least since the ruling by an
administrative law judge was upheld by the Commission Board
clearly states that the Okomas vending route should be added to
the howell/Novi vending route. And since Marlene Rothenhousre is
the current operator that is licensed by the state of <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Michigan</st1:State></st1:place> to operate
the howell rest areas, we would like to know when the Okomas route will be
added to her howell rest area? </SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Tahoma

As I said earlier i would like thank Risa for her dedication to this site
and for her continuing to fight for it even after she voluntarily gave
up the license to operate it. Risa should be
commended for her relentless fight to help marlene make the site a
economic success. To give up her own location to help another operator
is totally commendable. But all thanks aside when can we expect this
to be signed over to Marlene? We hope it can be done as
quickly as possible so Marlene can take advantage of the short summer
season. </SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN

style="FONT-SIZE: 13.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma"> When
Risa voluntarily gave up her license to operate howell/novi rest she ,gave
up all rights to that location including any that are being added now.
<U>The grievance that was filed was filed on behalf of the location not the
individual operator</U>, Risa personally did not win anything, the operator
that is currently being licensed by the state of <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">michigan</st1:State></st1:place>
to operate that howell faculty won!!!!! Ask Fred he
knows!! What happens to Risa? we really do not care, as it is
very clear she was willing to hurt and destroy anyone as long as she got
hers. If she believed in her case that much she should have never left
howell and waited for Okamos to be delivered to her. But of course she
choose to be greedy and try to get the biggest piece of the pie before it
was officially served. Shame on her and anyone else involved in
this. It is greed and thoughtless actions like this that are
bringing unwanted negative attention to our program. I hope this
serves as a lesson to all who what to try and cheat their way in life, be
careful what you wish for, you might get it. </SPAN></FONT><FONT

Marlene Rothenhouser is legally licensed by the state of
<st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Michigan</st1:State></st1:place>
to operate the BEP faculty located at the Howell/Novi
rest areas. She is in compliance and in good standing
with the <st1:place w:st="on">SLA</st1:place>. There is absolutely no
reason or no way for her license to be revoked. No where in the
propagated rules dose it say that an operator can be removed from a
facility in order to give that facility to another operator.
Again Marlene is in good standing with the <st1:place
w:st="on">SLA</st1:place> and has done nothing wrong, she has fallowed
all the rules and promoted into this location legally a year and a half
ago. There is no reason to penalize her or revoke her
license, she has done absolutely nothing wrong and will fight to the
bitter end to save job her job and her home. This decision is a
complete violation of our propagated rules and will not hold water when all
sides are heard and given a chance to speak. I might add that marlene
has never given testimony and never been given a chance to speak on
this. This has all been done behind closed doors and in
secret!!!</SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN
