WHAT IS
THE BIGGEST NUMBER OF PEOPLE YOU THINK WOULD BE WILLING TO COME TO CHARLESTON
IN EFFECT TO MARCH AGAINST THE PROPOSED TRAIL LINE. 100, 1,000, 10,000,
MORE"
We will need some active coordination work to get 1,000. As you
know, plenty of property owners
have written letters to the PSC. A few hundreds have signed
petitions; but, to get them together
for a long trip will require a plum at the end of the rainbow, i.e. there
needs to be a real payoff
at the end..........
We would need a celebrity to make a speech, or do a concert........
The Commissioners of
the PSC are not going to be standing on the steps at the Capitol, waiving
cheers to the crowd.
The Governor will not likely be serving apple cider or handing out picket
signs. A tootsie-roll
from Bill dePaulo will not draw people from Preston County.
If we can attract a nationally known leader...........Wow, that could be
huge.
