The festival has been shifted from the Dept of State to The Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Parks. Jeb has been trying to get out from under it because it is state funded. DEP has graciosuly taken it on but they seem to have marginalized all the folks who may be influential in supporting it.

After I got a hold of myself (hhmmmmm) I did start a letter writing campaign and several people are trying to shape this year's festival so that it is not mismanaged. Thanks for your support Spew!

Let's hope he really doesn't want to run for President. But I don't believe him when he says he doesn't. He is the smartest one but he too wishes to privatize most gov't functions and believes in a fundamental change in the purpose of gov't which does not include protection for our most vulnerable citizens or support for the arts.
