Mara and Marisa-

Sorry for e-mailing this so idea so late, but if you're into it, one of
you might consider stopping by this demo (or having someone else do so)
and pass out flyers for the Swing for Choice thing on Wed.

Just an idea.

 > Everything is set for the demonstration on October 12th at the intersection 
 > of Surface Drive and Kneeland Street, above the expressway.
 > Posters have been painted, the banner is done, publicity material is being 
 > printed, the press is coming.
 > Now all that is left is you.
 > October 12th is the day the United Nations has designated as the day the 
 > Earth will arrive at six billion inhabitants, twice as many as existed on 
 > Earth forty years ago. At precisely 4:15 pm that afternoon, the Boston Area 
 > Chapter of Zero Population Growth is holding a demonstration on Kneeland 
 > Street and Surface Drive and will be unfurling a banner above the 
 > bumper-to-bumper traffic on the expressway below.
 > We need to mark this event. It behooves us to raise political consciousness 
 > so that the world does not keep growing until our numbers become 
 > insupportable.
 > Join us Tuesday.
