Good Soldier - Thanks,
I have done that, (and it wasnt the HUAC unless the formal citations to his testimony are wrong, it was the SISS) - I get the citations on the web but I dont get to the transcript itself - just the mish mash of second hand statements (repeated and perpetuated via sites like Wikipedia) that I mentioned in my prior post, including at least one that says he didnt name Seeger.   I too question that comment in light of so many contrary statements, but frankly I don't believe much of what I read on the internet, particularly if there is an actual indisputable source of this material - ie the transcript. I love Pete Seeger- but I'm not willing to accept everything Pete or anyone else says as gospel. I'd like to see what Burl testified to and make up my own mind about how bad it was.

Don - I appreciate the Wikipedia reference, which I had already seen. I dont have 100% confidence in Wikipedia as a source. It has a nice footnote cite to the transcript but does not directly quote the transcript. There are contrary views on the web - the musicianguide site bio of Burl claims he didn't finger Pete. Not that I place much credence in that.

Being a lawyer I kind of like to see the exact testimony, not someone interpretation of it. I seem to recall a few years ago someone here saying that they had actually seen the transcript. I just want to read it myself - or at least have the "naming names" part quoted. It would seem to be a fairly simple thing.
