As the first year of the Panel’s time-consuming work comes to a close, we announce the departures of Dr. Paul Zarembka, economist at the State University of New York in Buffalo; Canadian author and journalist Barrie Zwicker, an active senior participant in the Canadian 9/11 community; and former U.S. Marine Corps fighter pilot Shelton Lankford. We extend our thanks and appreciation to these gentlemen for their service to the Panel, particularly during the first round of Consensus Points, which were published in early September, 2011.

We also officially welcome Aidan Monaghan (on the right), who joined the Panel in February. Aidan holds a Bachelors degree in electronic engineering and is a Freedom of Information (FOI) researcher regarding the 9/11 attacks. Government 9/11 records obtained by Monaghan have been reported by the Beacon News Online of the Sun-Times News Group, KLAV AM in Las Vegas, NV, the documentary “Loose Change: An American Coup” and several books. His 9/11 research includes two peer reviewed studies.
