Re: Peter Sandman Comments & Questions
While I had read many of thier main articles I had not found that Q&A section but it is now bookmarked as the responces to questions - and the questions - are at least as good a read as some of the long pieces.
Thanks for the link Snowy.

Re: Peter Sandman Comments & Questions
Thanks for posting those additional links, Snowy.
For a COMPLETELY different view of Peter Sandman's work, check out the Australian newspaper The Age, August 16 2006 (it is "tomorrow" here already!).
An Australia Wheat trading company, the Australian Wheat Board -- now called AWB -- got itself caught in the United Nations Oil-for-Food scandal on the food side of the trade: knowingly or unknowingly, they ended up paying kickbacks to the Saddam Hussein regime in order to sell Australian wheat to Iraq. They are the largest player in the "Food" end of the Oil-for-Food debacle.
The company seems to have hired Peter Sandman to help them apologize for what they "knew or should have known" about their connection to kickbacks. They rejected and buried his advice, but it all got outed anyway -- through the legal discovery process -- in official hearings that are going on in Melbourne right now. (The Cole Commission Hearings on the findings of the Volcker report regarding the UN Oil for Food program.)
In this article from today's paper, it sounds like he completely eviscerated them for their beyond disingenuous excuses.
Not the kind of material that usually ends up in public.
