Mr. Aveline still fails to address or explain the ULT responses
as given in the following FOUR observations:

I've visited the very pleasant [ULT] premises in London and met very 
pleasant people: they just couldn't or wouldn't answer any historical 
questions.

If you had questions, you never got real answers. If I asked
one of the European Secretaries (the heads of the local lodges)
about decisions, rules, polices etc, the only answer I usually got
as; "Made by the people in LA". How, when, way etc, was not easy to
find out. Sometime, they told, but this was always followed by; "But
don't tell anyone else".

My attempts to obtain direct answers to questions about the ULT have
resulted in some of the most bizarre responses, both on this site and
in direct e-mails, of my experience. It's been like trying to obtain
direct answers from politicians! For an organization that claims to
be open and non-authoritarian, the non-responses suggest an
organization more like the secret service.

But I have never met with such a strange "we are totally open" while
being less accessible than the CIA approach than I have found with
the ULT. Individual members (including various librarians who, I
presume, could not have been librarians because "librarian"
presupposes an office!) have been kind and generous – but have never
answered a single historical question directly unless it could be
done with an (apparently) almost memorized section of one of the ULT
official tracts. It's like trying to gather up quicksilver!
