<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt'>Hi
folks -<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt'>I
was talking to a guy called Mike who is involved in starting up a campaign
against sheffield university's deep involvement with weapons manufacturers like
BAE and Boeing. He's possibly doing a session at the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Gaza</st1:place></st1:City> support workshop this saturday in
sheffiled (see below). About the deep involvement of the arms
manufacturers - and the universities who support them - in the attacks on <st1:City
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Gaza</st1:place></st1:City> - and what we can do
about it. But would need - at least - someone to facilitate the session with
him . Some (not lots of) knowledge of arms trade issues might be helpful
- but not essential - alternatively - ability in giving moral support in
getting a discussion going etc. could be great - or ……..<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt'>I
have his number - but not on me - so contact me (07799 470898 / 01433
630949 or email) and / or dave (cc-ed) if possily able to help. And please pass
the message on to others who may be up for it.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
