[Seattle-editorial] Feature Proposal:

[anarch3m]

We could MAKE some NEWS.  We also had Earth First in space about last week for Northern Vanc island project.  I did a cut paste article on that...

We could Make News.  We could call some of the principles involved....and be "recent-er" if that is a relevancy since the situation at time global posted.

Is there anything to the Victoria or Vancouver sites?


if you have time to search and collect citations, I can frame up a feature "in overview", as opposed to just a "highlight by import" to features and that could avoid the poor writing you refer to (edit around it)

Walt, who does not mean to make excess work, or to sound like he doesn't want some of the work...but I love the collaborative feature work at the global...
