[Seattle-editorial] what I was referring to

[Joseph Eisenschmidt]

Laury, Kirsten; 

For two folks who would probably agree on a many decent articles
about the the ineffectiveness of the peace movement including SNOW,
and other stuff, you've gotten off to a terrible start. 

Can we back this up a few days, chalk up the anger to the times and
to the ineffectiveness of e-mail to be useful in solving problems?

Let's start with some consideration for our co-workers here. 

Laury needs to be able to discuss articles in any way she wishes
here without being attacked personally-I know kirsten understands
the need to be able to do that. 

Kirsten has very distinct views and as a writer can be expected to
be unbending when an issue has her craw. We at SEAIMC Editorial have
been effective in working with you, Kirsten.

Let's discuss amoungst ourselves, here, and get back to kirsten.

Kirsten, you have yourself admitted that editorial work is separate
from writing. That being true, let us discuss this and feel free to
bat any ideas around that may make some pissed off. 

We are a very few folks attempting to please many. If we make you
upset occasionally, great. I get pissed at us most often. 

That's our job at Editorial: Pissing folks off. You do a damn good
job of it Kirsten. Give us our due.

We (Editorial) have an online meeting soon. We'll get back to you,
K., and I'd personally like to collaboate with you on a SNOW piece,
if you'd like. We (SNOW) are a very important coalition, with our
heads firmly up our asses. Can we agree to do some good here?

Joseph
