	All he has access to, currently, is the New York minutes. And we cannot
legally give those out except to a member. However, you may send a
message to him via nyts@dorsai.org.

	And, if someone thinks that they are qualified to be President of
General Motors, making them Executive Vice President is considered to be
"menial labor". As has been posted by others, Bing was offered positions
which most of us would not call "menial labor".

	For me to physically copy the minutes would require I go through a LOT
of trouble. Since I have not seen one iota of documentation supporting
the accusations, why should I spend hours refuting them? It would be far
easier for me to just start throwing baseless accusations at you and
require that you come up with the documentation to refute them.

	Never happened in New York, either. But if the New York Lodge receives
an official letter, it goes into our minutes.
