Organizational Meeting

We had quite a meeting. There was space for 160, and it was full! Some notes at random, from the guy at the podium:

1. We need Doctors, Nurses, EMTs and the like. We are looking at THOUSANDS of people, and we need a well staffed safety crew.

2. We need a staggering amount of money. Just hiring the off-duty officers we will be required to have will probably cost more than $8,000.

3. A reminder--this is a non-partisan event. ALL who agree that the government is wasting far too much money are welcome, as long as they abide by the rules.

4. We had a lot of "Why don't you do X?" Questions. Some were very good; there are problems we did not yet know we had.

5. The Magic Time Machine deserves your patronage, and soon, please. They treated us VERY well, and we should all thank them by having a fun-filled meal there.

6. Julia Hayden, our media rep., gets interviewed on Monday, 6 April, at 4PM, I believe. That's Adam McManus's show on KSLR, AM 630 in San Antonio. Give them a listen!
