Aprel-- Please -- don't send things to peace-discuss at lists.groogroo.com from CDMSlistserv!!! I thought you told me earlier today you had removed the group's address? The message below came to the peace-discuss list. They don't want to receive items from other listservs. Please communicate directly with me and I'll post anything I think they'd like to know about. I keep getting messages about this so please, TAKE peace-discuss OFF YOUR MAILING LIST.
Thanks,
Lisa
