Here's those nasty 6 Qs(now 9) Murphy WON'T answer, no matter how politely he's asked!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeehaw!
Nope, Bill's just asking fer money, won't answer Qs for anyone, ...let alone potential donors (now that the early suckers have been picked clean...) Hell, with those low site "sightings," the press corp isn't even checking in on his GATA-eat-somehow-b/c-he-doesn't-have-a-real-job website on a regular basis! HELL!! Matt Drudge's numbers are higher than that just from the White House checking in!!!

The Questions are: (again for the 8th [MIRROR] time:)
1) Since GATA is a For Profit Corporation,
there are you and 2 others as officers. Is this correct?
Answered 3/18/99: GATA is a "Not-For-Profit" organization.
Answered 3/19/99: In reply to Darleen (see above) this appears to not be the correct
answer, so this is still unanswered by a yes or a no.
Writes: Pete S 3/20/99: "GATA is a 'not for profit' but I don't know any details."
2) What is the retainer fee being requested by the law firm you, as GATA are pretty set
upon using?
3) Since you are exploring an anti-trust action --and have noted many times on this
thread how much cash settlement M&B won on their most visible previous action-- is or
is not this case being taken on a
contingency fee/split agreement?
4) If yes it is a contingency fee case, then why is there a retainer
fee requested in advance?
5) Assuming success in your actions, what is the current GATA plan for
splitting of their portion of the judgement award?
6) Since this is a private, for profit corporation, how do contributors secure timely,
audited financial statements?
Partial Answer/extrapolation: this is now declared to be a "Not for Profit" as of
3/18/99. ººº
As such, there are legit avenues, governed by the state of Delaware, and the
particular IRS organizational code, for GATA contributors or any interested
party who wishes a look into the books on a timely manner a means to do so.
ººº Readers: Please refer to retraction/modification under point one. Delaware
filing structure is back in the non-disclosed category, and remains to be answered.
NEW ADDITIONS
#7 What is the A) estimate of costs of fundraising by your target PR firm, B) initial
deposit amount currently requested as the result of your inquires of the PR firm.
Bill sez: thus far the biggest contributors to GATA are the Committee members
themselves.
#8 So if your much ballyhoed lawfirm choice and your dittoed PR firm choice take the
committee members biggest proportion of contibuted funds (what 85-90% of $38,000
is from you 3?) will any of the 3 of you be able to eat?
You can spend your personal funds anyway you want, Bill, no problem there.
But just how is the PR firm going to put money into your organization and get the tax
write off they want for their "donation?" Big bucks don't come cheap, or without strings!
But you should already know that since you won't answer the "stringy questions" from
the Silent Six behind my posts!
And what is the percentage they will keep of the funds they raise? There are not for
profit organizations in the real world who barely spend 3c on every raised dollar to the
actual "educational and political cause" as Chris Powell describes it. How much of each
dollar is YOUR P/R firm going to feed back to you XYZ committee members?
#9 (From Dr. Searle)
Will you be returning the donations money to those who contributed when GATA fails to file the lawsuit?
It's been 7 business days, Murphy, since you visited the attorneys officially in your much ballyhooed junket on donor money to Philadelphia...how come you ain't talking DOLLAR SIGN goals yet?
Even United Way tells what their City/State/National donation total goal is per year!!! Why should you be any less accountable/transparent?
Must be b/c the Gold World is alREADY united!!! AGAINST YOU!!!
