Unfortunately, I won't be able to do anything like this for a while.
I'm gonna be pretty busy starting tomorrow.

Well, it's easier to organize if they actually give more than two days
notice. However, it should be noted that doing this in the summer/fall
is *much* better than doing it in the middle of January -- you don't
risk freezing off any parts of your body ;-)
Additionally, it would be worthwhile to get in contact with city
governments where any protests may happen. Eminent domain can be a
wonderful thing (`can' being the key word).
Speaking of 2600 -- it looks like the MN chapter's website disappeared
at some point (used to be mn2600.damnation.net or something).
