Publion,
What do you think about the concept of placing a couple of the new (Mac with Retina display)
laptops in the catholic colleges graduate schools (Newman Centers) programmed with this
site and Catholic.org, Also, I envisioned this concept expanding to parish halls (assuming the
laptops could be well cared for and kept safe.

Speaking of patently bogus…..did you read the article in the Los Angeles TImes ( 7/4/12) describing
"Professional" reviews and star ratings for various organizations and businesses?

Anything to keep the ball rolling. And this goes for the media as well as for SNAP itself. After all, if it weren't for the media being able to increase readership with sensational 'stories', and thus treating SNAP as if it were a well-run organization with a very substantial membership, there wouldn't be much of a 'story' at all. By his own admission under oath, Mr. Clohessy knows roughly nothing about his organization or how it is run, and yet he is the CEO. And the 10th anniversary conference to celebrate the 2002 opening of the sue-the-dioceses phase of the whole Game was attended by no more than 70 attendees (exclusive of staff and presenters) and far fewer tyhan that showed up for the obligatory and marquis-signature placard and chant 'march' in front of the local cathedral.

And as I've said, given the economic problems most countries around the world face these days, the tempting prospect of setting up the American-style lawsuit-settlement pinata in one's country must have visions of sugar-plum payouts dancing before many folks' eyes, especially if their country also adopts the American model of 'believing the story' no matter what the victim might claim.
