[Mb-civic] Not One Damn Dime Day

[Hippie Dictionary]

Dear Friends,

We have to do something to show these people that we do not approve of their
world.  Please do this and spread the word.

Let¹s all work for a better future for our planet, and hope we can make it
through the next 4 years.

We love you all.

Peace, Love and Tolerance

Joan and John
