<DIV>Please believe me if we knew about this situation we, the EOC would of been
craving attention to the situation. But you Joe Sontag on the other hand have
meeting we aren't invited to attend and when you were on the board we got even
less done because well you know that bias attitude that you have against certain
people and or groups of people. But thanks for the heads up Joe I wish the NFB
and the merchants would stop this NAME CALLING and this BETTER THAN attitude and
actually, stop grinding the axe's,and working a personal agenda.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you've checked the bidline
announcement recently, you may have<BR>noticed that the Anderson Building
Cafeteria, AKA the State Plate is not among the<BR>listed facilities. I
have it from a credible source that Ed Rodgers, the new Director<BR>of the
Bureau of Services for Blind Persons has ordered the facility removed
from<BR>the bidline and has turned it over to the Michigan House of
Representatives, saying<BR>that PA260 of 1978 does not apply. Were any
of you on the Elected Operators' Committee<BR>informed that anything like this
was coming? Why is the Committee not demanding answers and holding
an emergency meeting for the purpose of finding facts and taking a
stand for the Program and its licensees? Do you not realize that
the most profitable facilities on State property will be the first
to be taken if the EOC and those who voted for them just sit on their hands
and let the State Plate be given away to the private
sector?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><BR>If you have factual knowledge about any of
this, please share it with all of us who care<BR>about the BEP, as the future
of the Program depends on it. You can reach me by replying to this
message. If the State Plate is<BR>lost, can all of the remaining State
facilities be far behind? I won't reveal my<BR>source; and no, I'm not
joking about any of this.<BR>Joe
