Garth,

I haven't much time, but I wanted you and others to be aware that I've reconsidered my position on this Memorial thing.

I believe, no matter how much I may dislike the majority of the personalities of SI, they are essential as individuals which make the whole. For without them, there probably wouldn't be an SI. I realize that it will be a monumental task to bring about what I would like to ultimately see as memorializing Edwarda.

I'm asking that you please continue to stick with this thing. I think people just need to be made aware of why this is so important. It isn't just because of Edwarda. It goes to the very heart of what it is about us as individuals that makes this so important fundamentally. We are not us without them.

I think people need to realize that what happened to Edwarda could happen to others. And I think it is also way past time to put into place an organization which could deal with the same types of situations as they arise. We don't have to like one another to understand we really aren't all that different from one another.

I'm currently trying to bring my thoughts together to give this thing some teeth and hopefully bring a variety of viewpoints into it.

Give me time to work out a few things, and please stick with it. Your efforts have not been in vain. Don't let the lack of participation fool you into thinking you've not been sucessful in your efforts. There is more to do, much more, and I intend on lighting a fire under the asses of many.

But I need a little more time,

Mike
