[Forum] Re: NA City Council Meetings

[Jane Hudson]

Kurt et al...I'm hopeful that the meeting on the 30th will give folks  
an opportunity to make physical contact and commitments for just such  
initiatives. I think the list is great for follow up planning, but  
from past experience with web-based groups, in-the-flesh promises  
seem to keep.
Best,
Jane
