[statecom-discuss] Who is on the SPWG committee ?

[Betty H. Zisk]

Thanks Kim. You have said it all. By the way I noted at May 6 meeting a real
difference in style (though not in content) between most of the male and
most of the female contributors. Women were (in general) more focused on
questions of decency and equal treatment and simple respect for hearing
others's views; men on procedural questions in a highly rational way. I cant
prove this in any way because I didnt take notes but I suspect Eli's notes
will support me on this. I wld hope that we can ALL become equally concerned
about style and substance. Women on the whole were more emotive than men.
This is of course not unexpected even in GRP but I was struck by it. And I
am one of those who says viva la difference--but also respect and understand
that gap. Please correct me if I am wrong. Betts

The process SPWG created for taking comments is on that webpage. I
trust that all comments are treated with equal consideration
regardless of how (at meeting, by email to Eli, by postal mail to John
A) and from whom they are received. We are all equals in this party
and I would hate for someone who has the time, energy, and monetary
resources to do a mass mailing of their comments to have their voice
heard as any more important than others who follow the process the
committee has set up.

On a separate note, I wish we would keep all forms of ridicule off
this list, as I feel it can only drive people away from our party. I
don't see how we can uphold nonviolence as a key value while attacking
each other in such ways.
