In the words of one of my favorite characters from one of my favorite books/shows, Ned Stark, "Winter is coming". Now I live a good fifteen minutes from Augusta ME and would love to help with an Occupy movement anywhere, but sadly I have no car. Anyway getting off topic, how do you think the coming winter will affect the Occupy movements across the country?
GEt a commitee together to raise funds for large gas patio heaters like these. they are the safest for large groups and all the bars/restauraunts use them now for outdoor smokers in winter. They are also legal. Here is an example of one. they do come cheaper than this model but you get the idea. The media is already focussing on the thinning out of occupations in colder climates like denver. Blankets will not suffice for a new york winter you need a real heat source. see the link here
