[New-imc] new imc US orphans :(

[boud]

hi everyone,
  Right at the moment it's understandable that US based people are
focussing all their energies on the antiwar effort and i feel bad
about pressuring them to "handle their own new IMCs". Maybe after the
weekend would be a good time, though it's not obvious that the pace of
events will slow down. The Bush regime is desperate and is digging
itself deeper and deeper into a tight corner, and is likely to keep
bluffing until its bubble bursts.  All the same, IMHO, it would be
best to wait till after the weekend before calling for help. (But
anyone is welcome to do this - use your own judgment, no need to wait
for a formal decision from the group!)

If someone is helping out with one or several of the above,
please say this to the new-imc list. IMHO, it's OK to have more
than 1 person helping out, but better at least 1 than 0.
