[Januaryfirst] final banner / sign making tonight

[Dave Diewert]

Do you think we'll need a sound system or megaphone for the opening speakers?

I thought it was basically a silent march, with perhaps a few words about certain corporation while we passed by their offices, but maybe not even that. Perhaps there could be a few words at the end as well, indicating something happening on Jan 31st and other upcoming related events. 

Do we have a leaflet? 

see you soon ... dave
