[Peace] Caterpillar Protest?

[Ricky Baldwin]

Hi Tom-

We discussed this awhile back and there was interest. 
We tried contacing a national group coordinating
national demos against Caterpillar at that time, but
it turned out the dates they chose conflicted with
events we already had planned.

We also tried making labor contacts inside the plant
to combine efforts, but I'm afraid that's as far as we
got.  If folks want to discuss trying again, we should
contine this on the peace-discuss list -- and I'll cc
this to that list.
