Fine move.

MoveOn should already have pointed their members to the Winter  
Soldier IVAW event, but as Carl likes to emphasize, MoveOn is more  
interested in getting the Democrats elected next November. This may  
help the antiwar effort, but it's not sure, perhaps not even  
probable.  One seeks hope in suspect places. Uncertainty entertains  
hope. --mkb
