    If we can get four or more people to a meeting I think we should do it at that time. We can meet either at Rosalie’s or at my place.

    I can’t make it tonight, fyi.

    The next GA is probably not until a week from Thursday. I can offer my basement late Thursday night or over the weekend for a meeting. Let me know if we’d like to take advantage!

      while its true that evictees can expect to b thrown out on to the street, its really the housing market and job market that are making people homless. No matter howmany times i told employers i needed money, or told landlords the rent they asked was too high, the ansewr is allways that they will find somebody else more cooperative.

        I agree that landlords in this city are causing homelessness and displacing people who can not afford rents always rising. How about joining the housing working group. We are meeting Sun Dec 11th at 12 noon. Contact me if you need the address. Mona
