If the discussions are turning into circular 'I asked you first' aguments,
then, yes, we can do better than that, but if people feel something needs
to be discussed, then I think they should discuss it.  We're humans.  Our
growth comes from open communication, even if it gets confrontational.

What you're asking us to do this weekend (take some time off to be with God)
is something we should be doing all the time, so I'll not ritualize a thing
I try to do every day anyway.

The contributions of people like ML King should be constantly appreciated,
not just on a periodic basis.  And I do appreciate what he did... a lot.

Peace,
David
