============================================================================ From: "Brian Hill" <•••@••.•••> To: <•••@••.•••>, "Bill W" <•••@••.•••> Subject: Re: rn- Chossuvosky: SEATTLE AND BEYOND: DISARMING THE NEW WORLD ORDER Date: Wed, 24 Nov 1999 20:36:01 -0800 Richard; This is a killer article. How about it we make it into a petition for the people of the world (?) to come to consensus as to the legitimacy of the WTO? I have it ready to send out on my list - say yes and its gone. And... My close friend Bill Weinberg will have a Pacifica Radio show on the WTO the 30th, WBAI from NYC, also on the internet. It will be a live call-in show from the WTO in Seattle, and many of us will be calling in. Might be good for you to email re-this petition, or at least you can hear live from Seattle some of us who will be in the streets. Phone for WBAI - the Pacifica station - is 212-209-2900, and people should call a little before 9:30 pm Pacific coast time and just stay on the line until Bill answers, or email. Time to seize the time! Brian =========== Dear Brian, Often people write to me saying "Why don't you forward your posting to such & such a place", or "Why don't you do such and such with it". And usually, they don't say, as you did, "say yes and its gone." To everyone I say "GO FOR IT!" I always include in my posting signature: **--> Non-commercial reposting is encouraged Don't wait for me or Jan, JUST DO IT. We are kept plenty busy just getting things posted (along with the rest of our lives) - our wonderful subscribers can take it from there! (If you let us know where you send stuff, from time to time, that is appreciated.) As regards "sponsoring a petition", I don't personally want to be involved in that. Use my name as the re-publisher of the material, but not as a "requestor for signatures". I don't want tons of "signatures" coming back to my email address! Those who know how to manage that kind of thing can handle it! And Brian - the very best of luck to you in Seattle!!! your friend, Richard BTW> I agree it's a killer article, and many thanks to Snezana Vitorovich for sending it in. She regularly sends useful things, especially as regards Kosovo & Yugoslavia - anyone interested might write to her and get added to her list. We get _many more things sent in than we can possibly post. ======================================================================== an activist discussion forum - •••@••.••• To subscribe, send any message to •••@••.••• A public service of Citizens for a Democratic Renaissance •••@••.••• http://cyberjournal.org **--> Non-commercial reposting is encouraged, but please include the sig up through this paragraph and retain any internal credits and copyright notices.
