Re: Peter G
But Barry he was such a great orator (Jingles that means speaker - by the way whatever happened to Jingles.....I thought by now Rodney would be do impressions of him)!
Re: Peter G
you meant the book that somebody titled...."the book that killed camp"..
b silvy is right..he was no leader...a real leader would have told many people that the camp was in trouble and it needed to be helped....but thats an old whine i guess...
i do know peter is highly respected aand rightfully so for his music writings....i remember seeing johnny shines play the rec hall...didn't mose allison perform as well....
peter was always very nice to me,which is appreciated...but i would rather had him be a dick to me and have camp live...

Re: Peter G
This is a subject that I wish had not been brought up. Bashing Peter without his ability or even wish to defend himself is wrong. We will probably never know the true reason Peter decided to close camp. I have heard rumblings over the years from several people that this was not a financial decision. In fact the reason for closing that was passed on to me was so tawdry and un-Altonite that it made me physically ill.
Camp is closed. We all have wonderful memories (or most of us). We made life long friends by sharing an experience not many others have--as witnessed on this message board.
Let it go...please

Re: Peter G
The thing that most people ignore is Peter didn't decide to close camp. He decided he didn't want to run it anymore. He was one of 3 owners. When he informed the other 2 owners he didn't want to run camp anymore, the other 2 owners decided they wanted to sell the land, rather than try to find someone else to run it.
Be upset that camp is closed (with 2 sons I am)but don't simplify it by deciding "Peter closed camp". And as Neil said........let it go.
Finally, did Barry Silverstein consider anyone a leader at camp?

Re: Peter G
Barry Silverstein, and D-Berk, were leaders in their day . . . on the soccer field, in baseball, and the Rush. In fact, they're famous for posting the only goose-egg in Rush history: no senior flags brought over in 1973.
Trash aside, Barry raised and, I think answered, in one word an issue on many people's minds. Some may disagree, but give Barry his due.

Re: Peter G
Oh, I see. Because he hung out with a Berkman and let the soccer coach cuddle with him, he was a leader? Please.

Re: Peter G
Gentlemen,
We are not 15 any more. Can we try to keep a positive tone? There's already enough nastiness going on around us in the world.
I think of this message board as my brief respite to the stress of business and some of the ugliness on the evening news.
I've already been dodging bullets for the last month!

Re: Native American Hebraics
Am back from the so-journ [yes, Connie, I am in the phone book but, alas, no longer listed as "Pitz Schvitz"] and catching up on the message board.
I am reminded of a saying in a [recurring] solicitation from a Native American organization:
"Don't judge another person until you have walked a mile in his moccasins".
I believe our sages of old inscribed in the Book of Psalms [in Hebrew, so this is a loose translation]j: "Judge not your fellow man until you come into his place."
B'ahavat Alton,

Trying To Understand How It Would Work
Have you told the judges in the NYC court system about all of this walking in the defendant's footware? What if the person on trial had really small feet and the judge had really big feet?

Neil,
You know that would deFEET its purpose.
Musa el-Musawei
p.s. Few judges would get a kick out of it.
