The subcommittee of three has completed our draft of a petition for
<a href="http://change.org" class="">change.org</a>. We've worked long and hard to make the language
attractive to all who may read this doc.<br class="">
<br class="">
Attached is a PDF. Please approve! Or suggest small and only cogent
changes. Please do not distribute at this time. For the moment this
petition is only being seen within our small group. Ian, Eelco and I
will happily take care of the next steps required to get this
petition published and certainly get the MLA involved in marketing
and promoting this petition!<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
Take care,<br class="">
<br class="">
