Re: [CUGreens] Possible Nader Rally

[cathy@indra.com]

How about we invite them to one of our meetings?  That would be a good
place for us to learn from them.  I personally am not too comfortable with
having just anyone talk at the rally.  I admire your broadmindedness,
Michael, but I feel that we need to be efficient with our time and get out
a clear message, because there's a lot to say. 

I guess this will spice up this wednesday's meeting...
see you there
