WE ARE THE STAKEHOLDERS!
Today is the only day to spread the word on this meeting. Tomorrow this can continue, but we will already be heading into the weekend, asking people to do something significant next week. The main mission today is to rally up forces. By Friday evening - Saturday afternoon, we will have addressed and settled the question of how many will actually be going. But the work that will make that happen has to occur TODAY. And as early as possible, so people can do their bit during their lunch hour, through the day and through this evening.
*************************************************** YOUR MISSION: ***************************************************
Regardless of whether you can go yourself, at least think of 5, 10 or more contacts, people you have some form of connections with, email lists of concerned groups, large and small, especially including contacts living along the Eastern seaboard of the United States, but any interested contacts at all. Ask them to attend the meeting, and ask them to propagate the message. Ask them to reply and let us know they're coming. People who are not in the area, who are not in the same hemisphere, will still spread the word and know of others who would want to participate.
It's easy. You don't have to think. Just execute.
I will follow this message with a blurb that can be forwarded without a second thought.
***************************************************
The tactic on 7/17 is simply to show up and by some means declare that we are the stakeholders. Its sole purpose is to present that message, violate the premises of this "public workshop" constituted of presentations by privileged panelists, through the drawing of that simple line. The details will be hashed out as we go through the weekend. There may be more elements to the tactic as we go forward. Let that discussion continue, but:
TODAY, the ONE THING you MUST do is PROPAGATE THE MESSAGE.
