I had not campaigned for Radha or John during the election. It is only
when disastrous proposal was brought by the "quartet" that I had to
write many things about constitution and show how proposal was not
good for the TS and it's members. Whether John Algeo was sincere or
not is different issue. My purpose of writing is to make constitution
better, so that TS and Theosophy will progress.
I find it very strange when John sends his statements to individuals,
instead of sending them on forums himself, or publishing on his web
site where authenticity can be established. He must be able to stand
for his statements and opinions.
