Re: [OSList] Seeking sample invitations plus any advice

Susan-- First, I question that open space will be a hard sell for conservatives. Include something in your invitation that speaks to them. "Do you feel that 'politically correct' excludes you?," "What happened to merit and a full day's work?," "When your do-gooding conflicts with my truth," or
