Hi! I'm looking forward to reading your contributions to the "Feminization of Poverty" page! Cheers, Leah

Hi Bee- I'm not exactly sure where I should put my comments. I see that you're working on a per-existing page and it looks like there are several active contributors. Would you like me to address my comments to you directly or to the page and its authors as a group? Either is fine with me, though it might make sense for us to e-chat before I go mucking about with the real page, so as not to annoy anyone. Let me know! Cheers, Leah
