Dear J.J., (and et al) Thank you for sending this, JJ. In my limited library computer time, I will make some suggested revisions for a "Resolution" format. Time is short, but perhaps we (and/or with other Austin Impeach or Vote Rescue or CTKucinich members we can get one finished and posted by early Mon. so that everybody going to precinct conventions can make copies and take with them.
The Bold type is my beginning attempt to put it in a Relosution format.
The pdf version of a resolution is not forwarding with this e-mail - wish I were more computer literate and I could have shown it to everybody. (Sorry everybody for this last minute panic - and I am about to be logged off here at the library and can not get back to this until Sat. afternoon.)
