I would tend to agree with you Igzy. A forum such as this is able to reach a wider audience than emailing someone directly. Someone serving or working at DCP may be lurking or they may not be.
Barring any form of a lawsuit, I don't think any of the blendeds would be compelled to address Indiana's writings privately or publically since Ron did in Ecuador. As for platform whether it was this forum, theberean.net, or the defunct hiding history website, I do believe his writings had a role in educating the GLA brothers regarding our own unedited LC history.
