" I will tell you something about stories", he said
"They just aren't entertainment
Don't be fooled
They are all we have, you see,
all we have to fight off illness and death.
You don't have anything
if you don't have stories
Their evil is mighty
but it can't stand up to our stories,
So they try to destroy the stories
let the stories be confused or forgotten,
They would like that
They would be happy
Because we would be defenseless then....."

Along with the late Fr. Paul Kabat & the late Larry Cloud Morgan, Helen and Carl were part of the Silo Pruning Hooks that carried out a nonviolent disarmament action on an ICBM missile silo in 1984. ***See link below for backgorund on this 1984 action....

Larry & Paul were sentenced to 8 years. Helen & Carl were sentenced to 18 years.

Since 1984 Helen has spent less than a week out of custody. While in federal custody she carried out further resistance actions on military related industries in the federal prison. In the late '80' s she resigned from the specifically pacifist plowshares movement. When paroled in 1996, she expropriated $10.000 from a bank in Chicago. placed it on the floor of the bank, burnt it with lighter fluid and stated "money is the root of all evil!". She was released a few months ago and her probabtion breaking action is described below. read full story / add a comment

I thought to profile one of the companies which is unusual in that it has made bids for all three available contracts, and interesting in that it is Irish registered.

And that it's annual stock-holders meeting which allows the owners of the 55,913,669 shares to discuss policy, profit and direction will be held on Monday July 12th 2004. read full story / add a comment

News is all over U.S. media about Irish Pub Owners fighting the "smoking" ban. No current input on this at this site yet. Since this is not about health (except as packaging) it is hoped that toxics, consumer, environmental, health and other activists realise that this topic IS about their interests. read full story / add a comment
