There will be a meeting Sat 9AM at the Saratoga Library (I will check and make sure it is open then) for ANY AND ALL interested in helping Todd and I organize and run our GA meeting to be held later in the day. If you can come please post your intentions here. Of course any thoughts or ideas can also be posted here even if you can't or don't want to attend.

Mark, I imagine y'all will form more committees at the GA Saturday. I cannot be at the mtg, and I signed up for the media committee the other night, but then I was thinking since I know nothing of tech, it makes no sense for me to sign up for that. Anyway, I might need to sign up for a more low-tech humdrum job. haha. If you run across one Sat., sign me up and fb me. I would need something time limited, and fairly easy. No computers! Phone calls/outreach or something from home is good since I'm aways away with a really old car. Don't you just hate those smiley emoticons?? haha. RE THE GA MEETING AGENDA--I think all the occupy groups should address this debt commission immediately. Short term: Go to their meeting! Occupy the damned thing. All of us from all occupy groups. We should demand Jobs not Cuts from the commission. The right is pouring money into these politicians pockets right now, so we also need to address that longterm with a constitutional amendment/redress of grievances to install public funding for all federal elections. What we need to cap is not social security, but political contributions. That would in effect checkmate that Citizens United decision. I know an amendment takes a decade or so, but ten years go by whether you work for real change or sit hope and eat chips. Just my opinion.
