War-mongers are pounding the drum for war against Iran on the grounds that someday they might have nuclear weapons. But attacking Iran will not make US, Israel or anyone else safer -- it will kill many, many thousands; destroy the land, sea, air for generations; torpedo our own economic recovery -- and guarantee the spread of nukes as the only way to prevent an attack.

Such issues are homelessness, foreclosure, …
We are US citizens working towards effective representation of government. We are a centrist movement who believe that the issues we face have more than two solutions. Our members are both ‘right’ and ‘left’ and all levels in between who understand that dialog and cooperation can achieve new solutions to problems our nation may face. We look to eliminate rhetoric and obstructionism in our process of “Checks and Balances”. We believe in government efficiency through shared solutions, and intend t …
What are Skeptics and what does one do at a Skeptics' Meet-Up? Is it, as a friend put it, a bunch of people looking at each other suspiciously with one eyebrow raised, thinking, "I'm not too sure about you.?" Ask the members of the forum what a Skeptic is, and you may hear a slightly different answer from each person. Among us, you will find people who love the hard sciences, psychology, philosophy, politics, current events, history, the list goes on. The common denominator? We enjoy dis …

WHAT ARE WE DOING? We want to help. We see too many business owners doing marketing so wastefully. We spoke to someone who spent $20k on direct mail as their first marketing activity, with no research, not understanding their target market, no message testing, and obviously... ZERO results from that direct mail piece. We just want to help Denver Business owners avoid wasting marketing dollars, and become more effective marketers so that Denver can become a stronger business community. Won't you …
