Thank you, Brent,
I want to reiterate what a positive experience it was being at the ANM.  I
want to put in a plug also for the livestreaming....which is now on-demand
streaming.  If you haven't watched it yet, check it out, almost 70,000
viewers have. http://www.livestream.com/greenpartyus  I just got home last
night, and am looking at it for the first time now.  The first segment I
looked at was the little interview I did with Theresa ElAmin right at the
end of the meeting.  I was so impressed by what she said during the wrap-up
of the strategy session, that I asked her to share some of it for the
camera.
