[A friend from St. Louis writes about the peace march there this 
weekend: -kem]
> The St. Louis Peace community gathered in St. Louis's biggest park, doing
> "feeder" marches from the various corners of the park to a central place -
> Interfaith was one of the feeders (+ labor + artists + students) with about
> 900 in attendance on a dry, but cold, day....I took a bike to ride with my
> interfaith walkers and that worked well.   The theme was "Feed the people,
> not the war" with folks bringing cans for food pantries.  A feature event
> was placing pre-made tombstones with the names of Iraqi and US dead.
> Sobering.....and a collective cry for peace!
