• Writing to Us: Some Guidelines Link added July 18, 2001.

• Keep your eye on the ball. Which ball? Eric Boria's post to PSN. On the difficulties of communicating the need to tackle most social problems across several systems. Those focused on one system fail to understand how others can focus on a different system. Have several pieces on this, including an e-mail exchange with Eric that is not up yet. Link added July 18, 2001. Explanation added July 24, 2001.

• killing the revolutionaries Susan's story of structural violence. Link added July 18, 2001.

• Stem Cell Research and Pressuring the Outliers Looking at the research on stem cells as a status characteristic differential theory problem. If abortion is bad, and if an embryo is like a fetus, and if embryos are killed in the process of obtaining stem cells, then stem cell research is bad. The adjective "bad" here is the status attached to the characteristic of not letting the fertilized egg become a fetus. Link added July 22, 2001.
