Well.  All the dreams I've been having, not related to li-reg I must hasten

The nice thing about LI will be its democracy.  Since reps from all over
the country are going to be part of it, I think there is a much better
chance of making it stick.

Honeslty, some of the politics that we see around us is more because of
lack or breakdown of communications and not genuine intent to politick.

The national representative nature of LI will ensure, IMO, good
communications.
