[GPSCC-chat] Save the American Dream rally - stand with Wisconsin activists

[Gerry Gras]

I was planning on taking Caltrain.  I might be interested
in car pooling if you are going near here at the right time.

This may be a really significant event.  There are events
all over the country.  There are now 1808 people registered
for San Francisco, 901 for Sacramento, 1002 registered for
Wash. DC, 2377 registered for New York City, 983 registered
for Boston, 1805 for Chicago.  That's registered, and many
people don't bother registering, (I have not).
