To all Florida Staff and Students:

In just over 12 hours from now, I'll be boarding a flight to Pittsburgh, PA.  I have been asked to represent Appleseed at the NRA convention there, and am looking forward to schmoozing with the many, many different organizations that will be present.  I will *attempt* to get photographs, but no guarantees. 

Please wish us luck (there will be nearly a half-dozen or more of us manning the booth). 

Will be returning Monday evening, and will provide a full synapses of the convention upon my return.

Should you have any questions in my absence, please contact either marrandy or PHenry.

In Liberty,

Maybe one of you can track down Tom Gresham or Cam Edwards and get a spot on Guntalk or NRA news.   That would be great.

Eric, If You get Hungry, Ask the Cabbie to take You to Primanti Bros. http://www.primantibros.com/

Believe Me You will not go away hungry! This place is a Pittsburgh, Landmark!

I wish They had more than One location, When I was growing up just outside of City in the 70's

P.S. They have Florida locations Now.
" The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms. €�  - Alexander Hamilton
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."    -- Thomas Jefferson

" The Beauty of The Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it"
Thomas Jefferson

Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them.

Eric -- great !!!  I think you'll be an excellent Appleseed rep.  Have fun, but also make an impression that Appleseed knows what its about.  Be safe, and don't get into any snowball fights -- you've been in Florida too long now, and have probably lost your edge  **).

See ya in May.

Go forth and do good! Them NRA guys will never know what hit 'em.
The American Constitution is remarkable for its simplicity; but can only suffice a people habitually correct in their actions, and would be utterly inadequate to the wants of a different nation.  Change the domestic habits of the Americans, their religious devotion, and their high respect for morality, and it will not be necessary to change a single letter in the Constitution in order to vary the whole form of their government. - Francis Grund 1837

Well, I'm preparing to leave Pittsburgh, and I can safely say "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED". 

An AAR for this convention can be found here: http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=22479.0
