I am no longer coordinating communications for Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action, where I worked for nearly two decades. Although on a sabbatical from full-time nuclear abolition work, I will still be doing some research and writing on the subject, and will be publishing here at the Nuclear Abolitionist. Thanks and Peace, Leonard
