Marc and Christina,

Can you give some thought to  url refs to articles in the Journal of Aesthetics and Protest that give some examples of your editorial choices regarding especially these questions in Play ball.2... 

1. what have we seen that works?
	 a. when
	 b. where
	 c. why/how

OK,

More of my outline...

III. What do we know?
	1. what have we seen that works?
	 a. when
	 b. where
	 c. why/how
	2. what do we know that doesn't work
	3. Schisms of this with what we thought we knew.

IV. How do we make it happen individually?

V. How do we facilitate one and other to make it happen collectively?


All these to me are writings of meaningful nonalienated/nonalienating 
theory.


boo!
