Ok...I'm gonna bring up a concern I have after Saturday''s regional meet up/GA...Is this movement dying? I deeply appreciate all the hard work and hospitality of Occupy Harrisburg but what did we have there? 50 people? Wasn't this billed as a statewide GA? Really? I think there were 4 groups represented and one of those was represented by one person! But at least they sent a rep! Where was Occupy Philly? Or Pittsburgh? What about York? Lancaster? Couldn't get one person to attend and represent? I call that weak sauce! How about a college group? Nothing happening at Penn State or Pitt? Spring is around the corner and I have never been more concerned about the state of our organization and commitment.
I mean, a perfect example is this wonderful network we have been given and there are all of 7 people from across PA signed on here...how will we ever get anything done?
I welcome any thoughts...especially uplifting ones.

Where to begin…first - I apologize for this being so LONG everyone knows I hate wordy drawn out blogs so ... karma? Who knows.
There’s a small retaining pond behind the college apartments. I go back there several times a day; it’s a good area that forces me to have a bit of a walk. …

I was just endiing a campaign in Michigan against our Governor, and wondered what more was out there, what more can I do to help make my country the place I used to love, when I stumbled across a thing called Livestream, where people with the same purpose (supposedly) or like mindness could come together, chat, discuss, plan, and act and I was to say the least, excited. I started chatting and made so many friends and it was then I realized, that I had been wrapped up in my own small…
