WGA Strike - Days 91, 92

Back on the picket line today, where the tension was... well, not palpable, but sorta there. Rumors continue to fly as we await some word from WGA Central on the on-going discussions. The informal negotiating folks are reporting their progress to the full negotiating committee today, and we should get some sort of news this evening or tomorrow. I'm also told a membership-wide meeting may be called for as soon as this week. Whether that's to discuss the issues on the table or just share recipes, I don't know yet, but I hope/suspect it's the former. I tend to err on the side of caution when it comes to optimistic forecasts, but I think there is a glimmer of sunshine peeking through the clouds...
