ALOHA Boston!

A Hilo group's message of support to a city reeling from the bombings Monday at the Boston Marathon is getting national attention, with photos on Daily Cos, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow and Disney's Babble.
Occupy Hilo, a group on Hawaii's Big Island, had originally planned to light up the island April 15 with "Tax Evaders" messages. But the group quickly regrouped on news of the Boston bombings.
SNIP:
" Once the tragedy in Boston began to unfold, we immediately realized we needed to change our message to one of positivity and solidarity. Occupy Hilo Light Brigade took out this message to show our aloha for all the people affected by the tragedy at the Boston Marathon."
