Reminder: Showdown in Chicago starts Sunday Oct 25-27
I seen a post on this earlier this week and it sank like a stone. Really this is a time for all Americans to come together for a show of force. Leave the Party associations at home and fight for all of us. I will be there, it will be my first protest and I am excited. Please visit the website for details, as I am computer illiterate and can't figure out how to add link. Showdown in Chicago.

3. It is a 3 day protest.
The bankers association are holding a conference downtown. Day 1 is a meeting between average joes,
members of Congress, and Obama administration. Day 2 is a protest in front of the building where the conference is held.Day 3 is a march.
I did say in my original post to check it out. I should have been more descriptive, I am sorry.

5. To copy/paste something, Click beside the beginning
of what you want, drag your cursor down to the end of what you want. This will highlight it. Then click on edit/copy at top of your browser, go to where you want to paste it and set your cursor on the page then click edit/paste. The keys Control/C for copy and Control/V for paste works also.
To put a link in, highlight the adress at the page you want the link from, click edit/copy and to put it into DU, put one of these first, < then click edit/copy to put the address there then put > at the end. Your set to go.
