Hello, All: <br>
<br>
<br>
I just updated <a href="http://www.cagreens.org/sclara/">www.cagreens.org/sclara</a>,
including references to a Move to Amend meeting Tuesday, Oct. 4, a
Bank of America action Thursday, Oct. 6, Movie Night, Friday, Oct.
14, and our monthly meeting, Thursday, Oct. 27. <br>
<br>
<br>
Please check it out if you have time and notify me of any
errors of omission or commission, clumsy construction,
unintelligible prose, etc. I won't promise to fix every comma
fault, but if I look silly or stupid, I'd prefer to have the
opportunity to fix the problem if I can. <br>
<br>
<br>
Best Wishes, <br>
Spencer <br>
p.s. The Bank of America discussion includes two of my favorite
infamous plots showing (a) the US finance getting a third of US
corporate domestic profits, and (b) equitable growth at 2.2 percent
from 1947 to 1970 and lower growth at 1.8 percent <br>
