In the discussion
we touched on why forgotten conflicts are so forgotten. It became
obvious through the discussion why they are neglected. |

The marketting
department consensus was we should stay clear of them although the
generic "Forgotten Conflicts" was a good solution. |

We thought if you
single one of the conflicts out you would have a really dud campaign. |

discussion last year actually in our management meeting at that point
decided to go for "Forgotten Conflicts". |

The program
section really thought more should be done on these conflicts with
some of the interns getting very emotional, bless them. |
