[Summit] FW: A Prayer for Mother Earh

[Robert Mathiesen]

If someone wants to attend, it might be worth asking in advance whether the
invitation is meant to include those of us who are not First People.  Though
it is not entirely clear, the wording suggests to me that it does not.

Greg, do you happen to know one way or the other?
