I was thinking that it might be a good idea for East coast people to head
for Washington for a weekend of fun and games :)

Anything special about the 15th he asked just out of curiousty. <g>

That would, though, give folks time to grab friends, bug 1st Amendment
organizations that might be interested, etc.

I see the Bay Area folks are getting together again. A date like August 15th
(or similar) could mean we down here could start pestering the SoCal folk
about heading up there so we could build up a bigger rally. DC, of course,
is a great spot for East Coast folk to try to head for if possible.

It'd be nice to have a short list of locations within (reasonable? <g>)
driving range of most of us, then everybody grab a couple of friends,
strangers, what have you.

If these things keep getting bigger over time, they can't keep just blowing
us off the way they just did.

Mark
