Bring your friends as well as your opinions, ideas, and plans. We will look at the results of the November 4 election with a focus on how we can use the power we have to create a better world.

Questions to address include:

* Was it a good idea to boycott the state races?

* How do we get a better democracy, better government, better quality of life?
* Bottom line question, “How can we make the best use of the power and resources — time, money and energy — that we have?"
