Right on, as always! (Guess that makes me a moderate.) I want you to know that your weekly newsletter is a Friday highlight for me both personally and in my community foundation work. I gain more perspective (and hope?) from the Center for Michigan (and your work in particular)than anywhere else. Your Definining Moments project including the Community Conversations is particularly intriguing and I look forward to our community foundation (Fremont) participating. Keep up the good work--and have a great weekend. Libby Cherin PS--Hope to see you in Dearborn at the Council of Michigan Foundations Conference.
