My answers:

(1) Yes.  This was not clear to us when Jesse Francis gave his 
presentation last week, but has become so since, thanks to Scott Kimball 
and to Mike Weissman.

(2)  The group has not discussed it, but I can't imagine that any of us 
would support such a statement, nor wish to have OccupyCU associated 
with Jesse's web site given what we know now.   I expect that we would 
not have favored that association even without statements like the above 
- the feeling I got during the meeting didn't seem favorable to the 
proposal, and I had other reasons to think this wouldn't be good for us 
to do.

(3) I understand that Jesse has since withdrawn his proposal, so the 
immediate issue is moot.
