[Peace] Cancel Main Event today?

[C. G. Estabrook]

Given (a) the forecast (see below) and (b) the bike race -- closing, I gather, 
many streets in downtown Champaign -- perhaps we should postpone the (already 
once postponed) monthly demonstration scheduled for downtown Champaign 2-4pm 
today.  --CGE
