[Seattle-editorial] Re: FEATURE PROPOSAL: Urban Warrior

[Joseph Eisenschmidt]

This ties into a lot of issues of concern:

I'd love to see this, and will do the Friday S27 Space opening. Please pass
my contact info on to the coordinator, or Paul.
Joseph

If I understand the message Daniel left on my phone yesterday, we're good

I believe we're actually set for 7 on these dates?  Transcriber error on my
