[Lnc-business] Fwd: National Platform Committee starting

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

Revision coming soon.  Thank you for your input.

I didn’t say institutional knowledge was absent but lacking.  And those
instructions were never placed in a central archive - these things need to
be out of my, your, or anyone else’s control and become Party property.

*In Liberty,*

* Personal Note:  I have what is commonly known as Asperger's Syndrome
(part of the autism spectrum).  This can affect inter-personal
communication skills in both personal and electronic arenas.  If anyone
found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas), please contact me privately and let me know. *
