it is IS on for Wed. night, PLEASE come before going to D.A.'s R.F.D. if you can. It is convenient to MARC Train and Metro, and there are some peeps here with cars who can take you to the train (maybe all the way in to town, if needed!)

Am AT the campground now, the tent is up. Nice people here from NC, TX, CA, MD, DC, PA and who knows where else.

We also NEED PEOPLE TO MARCH TOMORROW (Wed.) and/or to help distribute flyers for the rallies on Thursday! Please come out and help....

[mattclearing]

48. Dunno if I can make Wednesday, but I'll definitely be at the Capitol.

Actually had made plans for tonight assuming that people would meet up tomorrow for the vote count and then go out drinking afterward.

Where is the actual rally happening?

[s-cubed]

49. Hi

So the meetup is at the DA's RFD, after the Tent Revival, which I presume means the DA's at 9:00 or so. I'll be there.

Faye & Andy - If i don't meet up with you earlier, I'll be there after the revival, with my van, so we can just go home from there. Any problems, call on cell phone - you both have number.
