"Retreat!"
Tom Humphrey writes in today's News-Sentinel that we're going to have to wait for a "compilation report" from the lawyer and accountant hired to help disclose the Black Caucus Legislative Retreat's annual financial information.
Richard Manson, the attorney, says that the "raw data" would be "difficult to understand." (There's a joke here somewhere about the data being "cooked" instead, but I won't go there yet.)
In spite of my initial reaction to that statement (something along the lines of "just let me decide what I can and can't understand, okay?"), I can relate to situations where deliberate formatting and presentation can reduce confusion in one's audience.
Let's be patient, then, and see if they can come up with something soon. I just hope they don't "re-treat" the information as to make it less than forthcoming. If anything, it sounds like there are currently some gaps that need filling, and perhaps that's what they'll be doing over the next few days.
