 CS> Whats happening is some folks are talking quietly and very

It isnt being, but that discussion has been going on as a fringe for 2 years
now.  Janis has a few folks telling her one thing, I have a few telling me
another, Ward has others saying other things.  They do not match up.  There
seem to be 6-8 people involved split between 3 of us.  Very hard to 'judge'
based on that!

I dont think I'm breaking any secrets to say that ward is getting the 'dont
want to move' and janis and i are getting the 'want to move' set.  Think about
human nature and you can see that.  Are we to judge based on 6-8 people?

I do not know about the others, but I need something more solid for something
this important.

possibly.  So far, they are dead in the water at their own chosing and at least
part of that is failure to follow up with information to the ZCC.

 CS> non-mainstream.

True, but he may have something.  One would hope they at least bothered to send
it to him if they wanted us to act in some way about it.

possible.  Bit late in the game and warned the only contact I had about that
*and* Ward.
