That’s funny. Mr. Skolnik’s electronic signature was part of the excel document along with his company name, Soze Productions. Moreover, The Washington Times also has a screenshot below of an email from Mr. Skolnik showing that he sent out the list of names, associations and contact information. (click on image to enlarge). The email also shows that Mr. Skulnik was scrupulously correct in keeping the focus off politics and on the United We Serve initiative, unlike a participant in the call from the NEA.
