One of his staffers told me that the staffer saw you sitting in front of the laundrymat, but John was working the crowd across the street from you when he passed and so you missed each other.<br /><br />Please update your post.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Tim SchofieldUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440707392074402841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38897564.post-30983107209771316032009-09-21T11:23:39.245-04:002009-09-21T11:23:39.245-04:00I would rather have a parade that is not political...I would rather have a parade that is not political.

The BRA tried to prevent a citizen from videotaping the meeting and it was Kevin who spoke up and used his experience with the Public Meeting Law to convince the BRA to allow the recording. I'd say this quality of involvement is less visible but more valuable than walking in a parade.Harry Mattisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16538583371784475876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38897564.post-17284782451815630802009-09-21T06:50:40.698-04:002009-09-21T06:50:40.698-04:00Kevin McCrea didn't march in the parade, but h...Kevin McCrea didn't march in the parade, but he did spend considerable time talking with people at the Street Fair yesterday afternoon.
