Hang tight...first off, there is a movement afoot to get UWSA natinal more
active here...at least to post info here for us. WE have been trying to get
their attention for over 9 months, and they now seem very interested. A FAX
went out to all 50 states asking for info on local BBS systems, networks, and
other online systems. If you know who your state director is....tell him all
that you know and let them pass it onto Dallas.

I am not sure what the national goals are, but I would think that looking at
the healthcare proposal has to be one of them. I would hope that we get back
to the basics, and start looking at government reform and the debt/deficit. I
think we ought to work on a more organizational mode...that is, looking at
starting scorecarding for our reps, and things like that.

I am in the NH organization as a Deputy Director of Diustrict 14. We are just
stating to organize...it's a slow process.
