Dear Beck and Joelle
I , like you Joelle, think it is a great idea. I have seen so much harm
done to all sides that started as well intending people that I'll be very
happy to help you with this great idea any way I can.
all the best
Tova
PS. My friend and partner Avner Haramati says that mergers should be done
in open space if they are meant to create something that works for the best
of all!
