So Georgia was a super-duper BLAST!!!
Here's my ladies who went with me on a fabulous road trip for peace
The IMPEACH table
some folks just chillin' by the fence on Saturday
the drum circle we were in on Saturday evening after the benefit concert... and afterwards we met a guy who was going to cross the line!
my Star of David on the fence standing out from all the crosses (upper left)
I thought these kites were so fucking awesome!
There were apartment buildings here last year that were used by the SOA watch, but the venue keeps on getting smaller and "they" seem to keep trying to make us more uncomfortable
There were memorials all over the fences (as per usual)
and a whole shit-load of people!!!
On another very important issue...
Take Action Now! Here's a copy of an e-mail I received from
The Sierra Club (I did also receive a similar e-mail from Clean Water Action)
Dear Sierra Club Members and Friends,
Our state is threatened with an onslaught of at least seven new dirty coal-fired power plants that will keep Michigan locked in the energy dark ages, dependent on imported fossil fuels and produce more dangerous global warming pollution. More outdated dirty coal plants will hamper the development of clean energy and the good paying jobs that come with it.
But you can help stop this from happening by going to www.nocoalrush.com (you may have to paste this link into your browser) and signing an online petition that tells state legislators to Stop the Coal Rush by passing legislation to establish a NO MORE COAL PLANT policy until Michigan has an aggressive Clean Energy Plan that would:
* Enact a strong renewable energy standard that requires energy providers to generate 20 percent of their electric power from renewable sources by 2020.
* Enact strong statewide utility funded energy efficiency programs that result in at least 1% energy savings per year.
* Implement a long term energy plan that guarantees energy efficiency and renewable power are used before any more outdated coal plants are built.
* Protect consumers from having to absorb the skyrocketing future costs of coal burning.
* Develop new standards for controlling the emissions of CO2
Tell legislators in Lansing that it's time to put old-fashioned, dirty, global-warming coal power aside and point the state to a new, clean, jobs-rich future that protects the Great Lakes. Investing in clean power and efficiency will eliminate the need for more dirty coal plants, build Michigan's energy independence, stem our loss of billions of energy dollars and attract 21st-century jobs.
Time is of the essence. Please go to www.nocoalrush.com right now and tell the legislature and your friends that Michigan's energy future is on the line.
No Coal Rush

Nitpicking aside, I'm thinking we should send a few pounds of the stuff to Lansing--not the good coal either. Oh no; they should get the clinkers.
