I had the same experience. If we do the big demonstration in front of
the federal building, I'll try to get a federal property permit just so
they can't use it to shoo us off.

BUt he was very nice to me, too.

Also, if we do this, we'll want it to be REALLY BIG. Please do what you
can to bring at least one other person with you.
