OK, I have been totally remiss in my duties - I've been so otherwise engaged by the temptations of virtual networking that I haven't even thought to leave some tiny grain of sand here to turn into the pearl of a discussion.

Any news out there to share? Did anyone go to the CalFed convention [down in San Diego this year]? Questions, comments, or concerns? Issues with your own unions, workplaces, or "leaders"? Maybe you have some organizing ideas? Feel free to try them on us!
