[at-l] AMC's response to me

[revmrf@xxxxxxxxxxx (Martin Fors)]

Hi,

I'm pretty sure that the response had been given many times before in
different forms.  It did nothing to change my mind.  In the parable of the
talents, I don't see any indication that the landowner approved of milking
the public to achieve goals, nor do I see any approval of extravagance.  I
find the wages of the high echelon in Joy Street as well as the office
location to be extravagant.  Add to the wages other likely assists
[insurance, travel, retirement, etc.] it must be nearly a half a million
dollars for the president, alone.

I would suggest that the central location could now be moved to the Crawford
Notch resort.   There, they could have their own exclusive AMC airplane at
the Mt. Washington airport [he facetiously writes.]

Like I wrote, I've wrestled with this for some time.  rusty

That was a very articulate response. I am reminded by the real
estate issue of the parable of the talents. I'd be curious how
much has been borrowed against the real estate and used to help
provide seed money for other AMC services and programs. I bet
this has been a far richer return on investment compared to the
dot-bombs so many other foundations have suffered.

I commend you for writing them and for sharing their response.
This has provided enough food for thought for several meals.
