Where I come from, "active" includes just showing up as a rank and
file member to meetings, and nothing stops any of us from that. To
that end, let me remind everyone that we have a brown bag annual
membership meeting in the Spartan rooms of the International Center
on Tuesday, 14 Oct 2008. The rooms will open at 11:30a with the
meeting agenda to commence at noon. I know all this, and I do not
even hold an office in the union. What's stopping you?
