about trying to recruit people, for precisely that reason. I remember one "Green Festival" outreach event a few years ago, that I invited half a dozen friends to. It ended in bitter screaming arguments, between Greens. Pretty disastrous as a PR exercise. (I have also witnessed fisticuffs in party meetings. But that's another story, best left untold.)
