[SSC] The Red Pill

[Joyce Canaan]

Hi Mike and all,
Sorry for not being able to attend any events recently but I promise to do
so as soon as possible! In the meantime, can I say that your piece was very
moving and thoughtful Mike and is one that I would like to share with the
Birmingham Free University that is beginning to develop? It might be
helpful to our thoughts.

Hope to see you all asap.

Joyce
