People or Sheeple On JFK and 'The Whole Mess'

[Ed Jewett]

Well, Bruce, I'm far enough into your gift to the conversation to know that I will spend some time listening, to have downloaded that two-page pdf of Sharp's 198 ways (loved the Paul Simon send-up), to have bookmarked the book (and its companions) at Amazon... I will re-visit soon to purchase one or two to begin with ... and to know that, when I am done, I will add the juicy bits to my thread on "Winning The Battle for Hearts and Minds" which has a sub-thread on nonviolence which mentions the gifts of King, Gandhi, Douglass, Sharp et al: http://z7.invisionfree.com/E_Pluribus_Un...wforum=165 .

So I will continue to built that online library, and I will learn how to use my new handi-cam so maybe I/we can get creative and get something to put up on YouTube.

What I need is perhaps what I have just found, or what you have given me: a way to do something, no matter how ineffective it might be in the early going, just to keep me active, focused, feeling energized and hopeful.

Here's what I'd like to do here, in this thread or on this web site, subject to ... (I do some cross-over posting and communicating to other places):

I'd like to have a conversation about how to find, coalesce and energize others (whether online or face-to-face).

And I'd like to suggest that we go through that list of 198 ways and begin to brainstorm the examples, what's, how's, ideas, etc.

And, of course, I'd like to enlarge this conversation to enroll others ...

Thank you, Bruce. And thank you, Peter. And thank you again, Magda.
