Committees

Pop occultism: There's absolutely no substitute for a genuine preparation. Always, always practice humility: no matter how much it's practiced, can't get it right despite excellence in everything. Do not wish to be anything but what you are, and try to be that perfectly. If that means a person with Asperger's who is in the NY times, so be it. Copyright Wizards of the Coast ... Age 13+.

Postulate if instead of air steak wrapped in bacon around Em asks to picture jcreed in a boat on a river.

Storytelling committee: on fire. Eastern Pennsylvania has a thing for coal. A fair amount of high quality coal. Many towns prospered on it. In the late 60's, a town called Centralia. Fire in the town dump, nobody cared, fire burned. Bureaucratic: someone should put that out. Too late, people noticed that a seam of coal had come up, and risen to ground under the dump, so the coal was on fire. So, you, over there... It'll go out. A year later... it'll go out... for the 70's, Centralia was a town with a fire under it. Underground, no problems. In 1984, crevesses opening up, roads breaking up, plants dying. Federal government: we'll buy you out: we'll buy your property, eventually buy whole town. Government gives you money, you take stuff, then backfill everything, lay down sod. People stayed because they had some rights to the coal underneath them, waiving by leaving. Today: there are three houses left, a general store, but sidewalk, street signs still there. So entire town plan full of empty grass lots, well tended by the federal government.

Greg Zearfoss: what are you doing here?

Em: Not sure enough money to repay for the day just spent. Group members. Get a chair because Evan is scared, scared/intimidation is good. [pennies!] Pay dues if you haven't. If you have, pay again. listen to Shawn. Gets dues again for gratitude.
