Oh, and contacting the Federalists' leaders might help as well. They're rightfully getting pressure from above to stick with their principles when they are directly relevant to the situation on campus and not an exercise in theory. Getting some information from those "below" to the same effect wouldn't hurt.

Do you have a point of contact? phone number? Email?

As for financial support.. Paypal would work, set up an account for this....and it only takes a few minutes to do.

Also I'll do this ... anyone who contributes cash (at least $20?) toward this I'll give them half-price on their next CHL renewal or a new license class. Will have to get with Codename46 to figure out who contributed but will worry about logistics of that later.
I'm in.

austinrealtor, check your PMs. I'll paypal you a $20.00 donation today if you'll use it to support the event.

Thank you so much for your support!!!!

If you have a paypal address we can send money to, I think both TAM and I would prefer that, if not, we will try to give it to someone who's attending.

Haha I'll also be donning 5.11 covert casual. In the sand color.

Thanks for your support guys. We don't have a Paypal setup yet because everything's still hectic today. I hope to see y'all there.

Unfortunately, I can't be there, as much as I'd love to. Being in Houston and all.

Instead, I sent Austinrealtor some gifts to being with him from myself ;)

I hope this goes really well for you guys tonight. Any chance of it being recorded? I'd love to see it posted on youtube or something.

Hey all, dicion, TAM, and botri all have my Pay Pal connected email address. Don't want to post it publicly, but ask one of them via PM and they have my permission to give it to you. If you send money, be sure to email me to that address so I know who sent what. Will give cash to codename46 at event - courtesy of all of us who contribute.

Everyone have a good time tonight and my regards to everyone upset with the days events. Let us know how everything was ... and if anyone can snag me an extra XL t-shirt to send to the DFW area let me know.

I'm sorry that I'm only now seeing this, 3 hours after it started.

I, too, want to know how it went!
