I totally argee with David Smith's observations that not all members of PEWS
have either the access or inclination to use e-mail (and I feel that we
should somehow work on both.) Still, I think that moving PEWS discussions
etc. to WSN will enable far more people to participate and will make the
decision process far more transparent (de-cabal-ize) for those who don't
care to participate. Why - becuase there are already a substantial number
of PEWS members subscribed to WSN. As a result, discussion can occur, I
think, with a far larger audience then is present at the ASA in August.
