Hi,
Just another update. I contacted Will Fantle and he will not be
available on the dates of the Teach-In to help with a session on
economic costs of the war. He suggested the www.costofwar.com site has
additional information beyond a straight cost of the war, such as
comparisons to buying health insurance for uninsured children, etc.
The pie chart from www.warresisters.com <http://www.warresisters.com/>
is a good analysis of cost of the military and I can duplicate and
explain that.

Subject: Speakers on Iraqi civilians
Colleagues,
Plans are developing for the March teach-in. We have discussed the
importance of including a session on the impacts of the war on Iraqi
civilians; two speakers we had hoped might be able to do that-Mike Miles
and John LaForge-have scheduling conflicts. Does anyone on the list
have suggestions for someone who could speak to this issue?
Obviously, if we could get Kathy Kelly to come, that'd be great . . . .
Or if a panel of resident experts could speak to the situation from
different disciplines . . . .
Ideas, suggestions-volunteers?
Thanks.
Kate
