Clever, John!! So anyhow... I agree with what Carl was trying to say (and please let's not get into a 20 email quibble on semantics, entertaining as that all is). I think the petition probably originated w/ conspiracy theorists and that the petition's wording is code for that stuff... So I'm also not in favor of signing it, even tho' I agree w/ the main contentions, just reading it at face value.

I take it to mean, O Great Wordsmith, that if AWARE should not LIMIT itself
to petitions circulated by those affiliated with the "911 Truth" movement,
then you think it SHOULD sign those anti-war petitions and ALSO petitions
circulated by
other anti-war groups.
If I knew how to draw a Venn diagram on the computer, I'd illustrate the point.
