Unfortunately, I cannot go to Crawford personally to help Cindy Sheehan--but, from the other threads I've read today it sounds like many DUers are going. I'm just wondering how many. If you are going, and you don't mind doing so, please post on this thread. I'm wondering how surprised I'll be!

1. Here is a map

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Crawford,+TX&spn=0.425767,0.934113&hl=en

leave Crawford towards the north west by Prairie Chapel road

Drive until you cross Rainey Road

take to the right

take the first to the left (Mill Road)

you probably won't get that far

2. Not this week

5. TexasLady..you are great...

I used to live in Texas, in Ft. Worth. My brother just moved to Austin--doing a PhD at UT. Maybe I'll call him and see if he can go. If so, I'll PM you, if you say its OK, and maybe you can help him.

6. He can email me

Have webmaster forward to "Buddy"

Tell him to fill a van with students and we'll look after them.

8. Thanks...

I will try and get in touch with him tomorrow. And, btw, if you don't mind--read my post about Baylor Students.

7. Hey, I just had a thought...

just remembered that nearby Waco is home of Baylor University. I actually did some study under teachers who are now there. I doubt they remember me, but I do know that some of them are BIG Dems. Wonder what it would take to get some of the students arriving for classes there next week to ride out to "The Ranch (ha)" for the protest---I mean, if you only got 1 in 10 you'd have well over 1000 people----there's GOT to be that many who would want to do a favor for their country. What do you think?

9. I think...

You should contact Charlie Jenks at Traprock Peace Center. He is the sponsor of the Campus Antiwar Network. He has his finger on the pulse of the stunent resistance.

10. Has anyone posted pictures?

There are so many Crawford threads that I haven't looked in all of them, yet.

[rateyes]

12. Yes, several...

It would probably be the easiest to find by going to Greatest Page and scrolling around. If I come across one, I'll post the link.
