Note from the Chairman :Let me apologize for the lack of updates at this blog during this semester... Please don't let that make you think that we haven't been that active; the opposite is actuallly the case. I wish I had a chance to enumerate some of our activites and accomplishments this semester [from Springfield to Washington, D.C.], but with mid-term exams , recent tornados , imminent snowstorms , ongoing events , and the big day tomorrow , I am [once again] on 24 -mode . It's possible that things will calm down some, after tomorrow. But then again, that's what I've said after the conclusion of the Alan Keyes event, after the November 2004 elections, after Event X, Event Y, Event Z, etc... After each of those major accomplishments for our CR organization, it was said that things would at least be less-hectic, and more time would be available. But that's never been the case.
Every time you simply search the web through here , our organization gets a penny...
