[Consensus] [Spokes] [Facilitation] Another CG cancelation

I don't think they will be, because you said in your email:  "if another 
Spokescouncil does evolve for that night"

Did you mean if, in advance, it evolves into a council?  If so, I 
apologize.  I was reading that as y'all would go to a site and then see 
if a meeting evolves...which would be different than if it evolves ahead 
of time and then is announced.

Sorry for the hair trigger.
