Hey, Jay.  This is Brian from the UCIMC.  With myself who grew up in
Michigan, I'd definitely consider Michigan (and Cleveland) to be part of
the midwest (the fringes of it, perhaps, but definitely a part of it).
I'm think it would be useful if they were on it, so that better
coordination on events (coverage of various protests or significant
events) could happen, or just general advice on how to be sustainable in
the midwest political and economic environments could be discussed.
