28. I think the acts - when we decide what they
may be - need to be simple enough to follow so many can participate. We don't need 100% participation - just a large enough number deemed significant enough that it won't easily sneak under the MSM radar.

Another thought I had after I posted the gas boycott idea - it needs a larger purpose - the question would need to be answered as to why we are boycotting gas or whatever item we decide upon? If the answer inspires action (to protest the war for instance) a lot of people would sacrifice whatever it takes to act with us.

I think there are so many creative minds and courageous hearts here on DU, this would be an ideal incubator for developing at least a few very effective non-cooperative actions.
