[CIMC-work] M4 center panel

Hey,

regards the M4 center panel I guess Chris has some concerns.  (I write
this knowing of course that I've already posted a center panel.)  I
actually think it is better to have more features than less.  We had a
little bit of discussion of this a couple of meetings ago.  That way the
features would be more current.

While the downtown turnout was small for M4, I don't know that that should
be a criteria for not having a feature on it.  In addition, the M4 actions
were decentralized anyhow with events going on in dozens of schools and we
had video and photo people at several of these decentralized events; the
actual people count for the decentralized M4 actions is much greater than
the die-hard activists that went to march in the rain downtown.

Plus, and most importantly, the kids are all right - and we need to engage
them, they are our most rabid devotees.

paz,
