I am the immediate past president of my TU chapter in WNC and a member of its Board of Directors. I have always been very leery of TU National and this just goes to confirm it.

From my own personal dealings with the man, I'd warn TU chapters in Washington State to be very careful in their dealings with Kirk Otey. This is a gut feeling but I just don't trust the man (and that isn't because he is a lawyer.) I think my mistrust stems from the fact that he has an agenda and I don't think his agenda always squares with that of a volunteer-run organization.

FWIW
