[Peace-discuss] sign renewal

[Lisa Chason]

For people planning to be at the weekly protest on Prospect: we need on-going sign renewal. We have two audiences -- the drive-bys (who need bold easy-to-read messages) and those who have been stopped by the traffic light (and have a moment to read and digest the sharp and the witty) so a variety of types would be best. There are a few messages that we especially need several versions of:

honk for peace

Gather here every Saturday,  2-4pm  JOIN US!

AWARE meets Sundays 5-6:30pm 218 W. Main St, Urbana 
or more simply: AWARE: www.anti-war.org

So please consider making a sign. Bring it on Saturday and then either take it home to bring again the next time or leave it with the collection (nobody of course HAS to bring a sign -- there are plenty available on site). Here is a list of possible messages culled from recent emails of signs seen in San Francisco and Washington. Please share other ideas:
