There is loads of free advice on how to deal with customer complaints available on the Net. So why is one well known astronomical organisation choosing to ignore serious complaints about two employees? Is it indolence, ignorance, stupidity or something more sinister? You don't need to be Perry Mason to realise that such career threatening allegations would also reflect badly on the people conducting the investigation. In spite of whatever these blinkered scientists have to say about the validity of the complaints - the Courts will decide - or whatever the response should be to their relentless propaganda about the (zero) scientific merit of most of their work should we allow the tax payer's dollars to be used to prop up their crumbling edifice?

I work in the area of consumer affairs - astronomy related companies and organisations seem to the target of far more complaints that you would expect given the economic size of the sector. Silence usually means that your complaint was justified and they have no defense or excuse. I agree with other posters that a name would have been nice but perhaps the matter is "sub judice"?

Eric, On second thought,if you are really good and stop being so much a smart ass you might learn something from Rod. He knows more than you do.

Rod, relentless self publicist, Mollise chips in with his usual unhelpful comments. Let me give you a hint. The first is in aggressive but not in polite The fifth is in sanctimonious but not in mature

Let me give you a hint. The ninth is in PLONK. But seriously, I politely but not aggressively suggest you just failed the Turing test.
