I heard that CH police are after the parties responsible for those b/c
the glue that was used to post them is sticking to buildings. Not too
cool.

Ooo, oooh, Mr. Kotter, I know I know! I can answer that in one
sentence: There is only one person who is able to represent MOVE and
that is Erik Ose. (I can't really discuss him in public, I get too
excited. Let me know if any of y'all really wanna hear it.)

I've been marking the whole group "read" for a long while and have
posted all of maybe 3 or 4 tinmes max this year. I just finally decided
to wipe it off the screen (but of course I had to have the last word
;). I left triangle.politics long ago for the same reasons. It's hard
to believe, but it has even more fascist lunacy than t.g and a higher
ratio of noise to signal. :(
