A CEL, Coalition to Extend Life, meeting is scheduled for every Thursday at 2:00 PM CDT at the Ustream Sunday Evening Update Channel.
Everyone is invited.
Initially, it may be only text communication (chat-like). Although if Mind available, he may have some images or may enable his voice capability.
The initial objective of the meeting is to brainstorm and come up with ideas to promote the CEL effort. Topics may include:
- Raise Visibility
- Recruiting
- spreading the CEL petition
- forming local groups in your area to lobby your congressmen
- Explain CEL to the group with question and answer
- Brainstorm for CEL in general
- Future CEL improvements and developments
Any related topic is game for discussion. We may organize the topics and concentrate on areas-of-interest in later meetings.
Tom Mooney and Mind/Justin will be there to lead discussions when they can.
We will be inviting all of imminst to help with the meeting.
Anyone interested in CEL, Coalition to Extend Life can come by and ask questions or just listen.

For those unfamiliar with Ustream:
Mind has a regular program there called the Sunday Evening Update at 5:00 PM CST. During other times he has a fairly large assortment of video documentaries that continuously play there.
When a scheduled meeting is to occur, a text window appears in the screen, just to the right of the video display. The text window shows the current text conversations. Below the window is a place to enter your comments. Just type in your message and press "send".
You may log in with your ImmInst name. If you do not log in, Ustream provides you a guest # as an ID. This ID# is bold in the text display so you can recognize yourself from other numbers in the display. You may prefer to have a name displayed, to do this, in the upper left is a "Sign Up" button. Just provide the minimal information, and thereafter you can log in with a name than can be recognized by others.
