I went to look at something recently
Out in the mountains... real rural area
As in, if you drive off the side of the road you're shit out of luck.
To look at something that may or may not benefit Occy.
Don't believe everything you read. Many of the people out there still support us and were enthusiastic to talk to people who were involved.
They also told me that it's the poorest part of their state.
If this something happens it'll be really cool BTW... but I'm holding my breath.
= new reply since forum marked as read
And the fact that a couple of us looked like hippies.
Fortunately, there's lots of bluegrass types out in the mountains that get along well with hippies...
At one point we pulled around the corner of a general store and our driver said "I'm going to ask
that guy for directions -- NO fuck that he has a gun!", Oakleys, and an Asatru tatoo on his chest.
But like I said, many small rural Southern towns have lots of poor people both black and white.
A close family friend who took care of one of my Southern relatives had never been to a northern
city before we invited her to visit... she couldn't afford it. And she was working herself to the bone
in her 70s, keeping people older than her out of nursing homes.
Whether or not that's in fact the case
