Ron O., this is not just an "old session that is still continuing among the same people."   We do involve new people and have been all along. It is not a static group or a "clique," as you are trying to characterize it. And as far as assembling interested people are concerned, you missed the point of what I said. The process begins with a phone call or an e-mail, then the word goes out from there.

When we do have an "invitation only" event, it's a whole different thing.

I'm really impressed that, all the way from New Jersey, you know more about what's going on in the Seattle area than I do and that you are telling me the deeper meaning of what's really happening here.

Ron—I'm here, on the scene. You're not.
