[GJM] A Global Free Food Network

[John DeSantis]

Dear Bill, and everybody else, please only comment about my postings to the
discussion at globaljusticemovement.net forum only to the forum, not only to my
e-mail address personally. My answer to you is the same as the one I posted
to the forum quite a while ago, and that is that I will invite all groups
and Movements into the worldwide discussion that I am trying to start once I
get all that I have personally envisioned for 28 years now going -- I say
that on my web site also. Until then I only want to focus my time and energy
on my own vision for humanity -- especially because I don't like to talk by
typing. I read most things on this forum, and elsewhere.

As you can see Bill, I replied to your message that you sent to me only,
also to the GJM forum where you saw my posting.

Please don't be insulted, and the same "please" is for all the rest of you
who are trying to help humanity with your own particular visions. I respect
them all and read about them all, but that's it for me until I get the
worldwide forum that I want to start around my own vision first -- then I
will invite all other people and organizations and their visions into the
public discussion that I am first trying to start only around my own
"starting ideas" that are presented on my web site for everyone in the world
to then get involved in.
