[Oct. 17 Seattle] Fwd: Import your contacts and old email

[chr2eemail at comcast.net]

I don't agree that the original proposed route is too long.  For example, it's about half the length of the biggest march in Denver, and much shorter than the May Day marches from St. Mary's, downtown, and on to Seattle Center.  More, when you're walking in a crowd, shouting slogans and chants, etc., time flies by in comparison to when you're walking alone.--Fk.

Alex, Anton, Edwd and I walked variations of the proposed route tonight.



We concluded that SCCC via 12th or Broadway to Jackson, to First, and  

up Pine to Westlake is too far.

We will have less people participating in the march if it is clearly  

too long.  People would likely decide to be there at the beginning  

and/or the end and the actual number marching would be lower than we  

want, possibly lower than we need to go into the street.



We can of course discuss this further, but this was the general  

consensus amongst of the four of us.



Here are proposed routes.  (Folks will argue pro and con in  

subsequent emails.)
