Paul, I think we should develop a short (sentence or two) answer to each point in case the
Mayor's press office needs something. See if you can start a draft. Indicate which agency would
be responsible for such an activity and whether it is already being done.

Subject: Re: [ps234] FW: Rally downtown
just back from that meeting-- the crux of it was to organize people to attend the rally Tuesday
Dec 18 5:30 pm~
Art Spiegleman (best known for MAUS, Raw magazine, the black on black 9/11 New Yorker
cover) is a stuy parent and has designed a flyer for the rally-we
were all given prints of it to xerox and distribute- they are hoping for children with dust masks
and gas masks and hand-made signs as well as people from the
neighborhood, businesses, etc to attend-
people attending the meeting were mostly stuy parents with a few from ps/is 89 (who have
been promised a hepa filter vent system for the school before they return)
and one parent from ps 150- they are being forced back into their school Jan 7(?)
A rep from Manhattan Boro President's office attended- Rick Mullen- he confirmed that OEM
is not responding to any of the politicians (nadler, fried, silver, duane,
glick, etc)
someone reported that the big corporations are coming back to downtown offices in january-
there was discussion about doing this now when there is a lame duck administration, but
since schools are being forced back now, it can't wait- and hopes are that
this rally will encourage our new mayor and his administration to be responsive to
neighborhood environmental/ school/ children/ health issues.
they need a sound truck for the rally, any sound truck sources??
