I think the group was allowed to say they would be out of touch. There's plenty of reasons why (simulate the isolation of being on Mars, etc). I think, personally, that the participants would have been asked to keep the...controversial polyamorous aspect quiet.<br/><br/>That's my gut feeling.<br/><br/><br/>I'll move the congressional testimony to after Holly's latest post. And set the scene for that evening if thats okay for everyone.<br/><br/>(I swear I'm not trying to railroad the story. If anyone feels that way, let me know please.)
