Thanks zeet. That article was good.

It reminds me of how protesters have good intentions but tend to think with their hearts. Joe is right about the media coverage angle.

They seem to give up when they don't encounter resistance. Case in point: My mother is pro animal research and is on an animal ethics commitee. She takes it very seriously. Word came that protesters were going to picket our house. My mom used reverse psychology. When they showed, my mother went outside with me, and my sister and our dog and welcomed the protesters. She told them she was happy to let them protest their cause. They did not stay for long. Why protest someone who is not angered by your presence?

This dude seems pretty hoky, if you go to that much trouble (two cemment barrels) giving up after one day cheapens your dignity. Although I guess soiling yourself would do the same.

Seems like you could get them to let go of the bar by simply tickling them. I know one spot that always tickles.
