==Take this issue survey==
:[[user:jsager]] Oct 24, 2011 2:52 pm
I am circulating this survey in order to gauge the views of the occupiers on various issues. Please fill out this survey if you haven't already; the more people who fill it out, the better the results. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dHhSSGl1dnVsVFVaOTlUa3RFck04RHc6MQ&ifq

So others can go to. Or get people's phone numbers so that you can call them periodically and get updates!
