Patrick, I am sort of casuall...Go Occupy Woodstock! Patrick, I am sort of casually tracing the threads of the movement, and I find a ball of steel wool there, suggestive but not coherent: Marxists, Socialists, Wobblies, SCA members, Folkies (all over it like white on rice!), homeless folk, Civil Rights Movement vets, union people, and a lot of ordinary middle class citizens who are feeling something like class consciousness for the first time. It's 1968 all over again, but we're better prepared and less crazy. <br /><br />Holler at me when you can. I'm excited, despite- even bacause of- the coordinated effort on the part of the mayors to drive their Occupys inside. Phillips must be laughing his ass off up there...Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005685355127684780noreply@blogger.com
