I'm proud of my NC city--we have 234 signed up for the vigil!

[Lex]

Tomorrow night. We already have 234 signed up as of right now!

Very cool. Of course, Durham NC has had a peace vigil every Saturday here at this location for the last 3 years.

2. That's really cool.

Last time I checked, the number of people who had registered was quite a bit under 100.

[Lex]

3. Looks like the numbers are going up fairly fast.

I've pulled out my hand-made poster--from when I marched in Raleigh against the war before it started--to take tomorrow night.

I think there will be quite a crowd.

6. OMG! There's a vigil in a town nearby! We're going!

28 people have signed up for it! I'm so excited!:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

Should I take a sign or just the candles??? Are signs appropriate for vigils?

[ultraist]

9. Usually, signs are cool for Peace vigils.

Sometimes, they ask for no signs but it likely will be noted on the event info if that's the case.

I'm taking signs!

[in_cog_ni_to]

10. OK. I'll make some and if I don't see anyone with one,

I'll leave them in the car. :) Thanks!

[ultraist]

7. I may see y'all there!

I'm printing up some SwampRat artwork to make signs with. My 11 year old daughter, is really looking forward to the event!

[Lex]

12. I'll put my DU sticker on the back of my poster.

Glad your 11 yr old daughter is coming to the vigil. Very cool parent she has.

[Richard Steele]

8. I just signed up 5 minutes ago. See you there!

Now I have to decide what sign to bring...decisions, decisions!

[Lex]

11. I'll put my extra DU bumpersticker on the back of my sign!

See you there!

[lonestarnot]

13. We have over 300 signed up for tomorrow evening in Phoenix, AZ! Yeah!

[Lex]

14. Excellent!

I'm taking my digital camera by the way so I can *prove* how many people showed up.

The news media, even local, has a way of minimizing attendance at these events.

[lonestarnot]

15. Me tooooo will post tomorrow eve if not to tired otherwise next day!

[Scout1071]

16. Almost 300 listed in Kansas City.

And nobody I have talked to that is going actually signed up on the website. I think we are going to have a great size crowd.

[earthmama]

18. Cool .. they have one in my town too ...

I am going !!!!! I'll bring my camera and post pics!!!

[Lex]

20. Now we are up to 324 signed up here in Durham

and I expect there'll be more than that actually showing up.

[faithnotgreed]

[libnnc]

21. I'm going to the one in Lewisville
