Security & Prosperity Partnership Summit
The leaders of the US, Mexico, and Canada, including G.W. Bush, are meeting in New Orleans tomorrow and Tuesday for the SPP, a free trade and "security integration" conference. Here are actions planned to counter the summit and also to build our movement.

Lastly, we no longer have computers to use at the library. We still have WiFi so you can hook up to the web with your own laptop. Now you can browse our library in peaceful serenity, without the crowd of weirdos camping out in the computer corner that had become a fixture in our library. We felt the computers distracted from the physical library's usability, and the library has a higher priority than free computer access for us. So, no more computers for now.
