[Peace-discuss] [Peace] Fwd: Next week: will you join us?

[Karen Medina]

Several people wrote something similar to this: > Are you sure? "99%
Spring" is the title MoveOn, Jones' Dream, etc. are using.

Dave Johnson would know for sure. On the Labor Hour, they mentioned two
training sessions and I thought JWJ was careful about this, but maybe the
National JWJ is being suckered in.
