If there was any definition of a method to gain the authority to see that peoples needs are met, that would be great. But no.

I just thought it looked cool, but I know what your saying, we need a wiki or something.

Something. Any forum will do actually. The most important thing is accountability such as you have shown towards solution that is unconditional:) -

Looks or image are a form of corporatism. It is the part the people practice unconsciously as they interface with society or the corporations that represent it by virtues of the peoples dependence on them.----

We interface with a society, NOT a culture. Culture is about people working together to meet needs. Culture has reasonable fears like, starvation, staying warm and clean, keeping a good source of water etc. In society special fears have been created which are not altogehter reasonable. For example, looking "uncool". Ridicule and the opposite are in a similar realm but one is offering fear with rejection and the other is offering appreciation and thanks and neither must be reasonable because no need (theoretically) is at stake.-----

There can be a cultural aspect to activism in society. Or, society needs activists to have any hope of being healthy. Primarily to counter the negative instincts corporations must exploit to profit. Accordingly this activity right here, which has accountability towards conceptual basis and workability making it useful, is our only meaningful culture unless we can create larger public events on a local level that share what might be universally defined and carried here as a culture of truth or understanding, which is actually needed by the whole in a democratic sense eventually.---

Hmmmm no way to leave comment on that page.

A glaring inadequacy I'm finding with uniformity is the complete lack of the definition of any authority under law by which to see demands met. Therefore, by default, the movement appears barely lawful relying on civil rights under the constitution.------

By contrast, if the concept of Occupy was based in creating absolutely constitutional government, based in the knowledge of the fact that there has not been one for 140 years,----

And working to use Americans first right, article 5 of the constitution, to defend the constitituion, as Americans last right, the one that can preserve all the others, great support could be found because there are obvious legal mechanisms in plave waiting to be activated. Here are some different perspectives on this.
