Great! Check out the Regional Energy Revolution Rally in Concord, MA, at the site of the start of the American revolution, at http://www.gwenet.org
Kucinich is great; see what you can do about Voinivich! Get every green church group, school environmental group, stopmountaintopremoval
group, etc. to bombard his office. If we could just mobilize masses of the college students in OH to call Voinivich, it could be immense! People are afraid to call their Senator. They need to understand that they’ll be talking to an aide, who will (hopefully) record their message, and that they CAN make a difference! As a native Ohioan, I’m currently in the mode of constantly dissing the state. Come’on OH, make your native daughter proud!
