A truth of the nuclear age/climate change: we can no longer have endless war and survive on this planet. Oh sh*t.

Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.

I fly into Philly on the 22nd and plan to attend the People's Convention all day Saturday.

I'm especially psyched to hear what Tasini, Turner, and of course, Jill Stein have to say!

I plan on volunteering for Jill upon my return to AZ so I'm hoping to get some pointers at the People's Convention.
