168. You claim to have written it?
OK. I would not know, as it is signed by someone going by the user name 'botch'.

There is an interesting bit in that post:

Given that transparency and disclosure were key activist themes for Andy, they are still straining mightily to continue to pin the charge of hypocrisy on Andy, as if it were the essence of reasonableness that a weak, jaundiced and dying man should account particularly for each penny received or hire an accountant when money is needed by a date certain to obtain a surgery. You know, the equitable and fair argument that if the government has to do it, then dying activists should do it too.


Evidently it will surprise you to learn that every penny raised for Andy WAS accounted for to the Washington Secretary of State.

The charity was registered in WA. MY SIGNATURE IS ON THE FORM SUBMITTED. The WA state form required to register can be found here:http://www.secstate.wa.gov/documentvault/ApplicationtoRegisterasaCharitableOrganization-1453.pdf

It would seem that if a few DUers out of state can manage to register with the state of Washington SoS for the $50,000 raised for Andy's medical care, that Bev Harris, with a million bucks and a 501(c)(3) and "an accounting firm specializing in nonprofit organizations" could manage within two years to register BBV in her own state, as required by law.

Ya think?
