I apologize... my fault for not reading all the posts on the meeting.  I appreciate not wanting to see Treaty fail.  I guess I'd ask what minimizes risk to those who participate, and how much of an impact we can have.  I'll need more specifics, so I'll begin by catching up on posts.  That said, I've $30k in this "investment" and it's now worth $3k, so forgive me if I'm a bit gunshy for the moment absent a business plan that aimed at turning this around in a positive direction.
