You are invited - good stuff

[Peter Howie]

Dear Ed,

Though the layout didn't come through on my 
computer I sense that this will be a great process you are working with.

I hope it goes well and that many sign up for 
either the revolution or the training for the revolution (psychodrama training)

Cheers
