[Dialogue] RS-1

Wed Jun 24 07:18:16 PDT 2015

I have often wondered what would happen if we took an "advertisement out"
 in several news outlets with a picture of Guernica and then a
question. * "Have
you ever been to a course with a conversation about this picture"* . .
.   "*Would
you like to know connect with others? *. . . "  Then have a  URL or survey
or phone number or something for people to respond. . . .

Since we are coming on 40 years since Town Meeting,  I have wondered about
an add for it as well.
