Cool article!

It's a cool article.
It was a cool event.

I'd like to see some follow up....like
what affect the even had a year later..or if it inspired groups or individuals to go on and do some other interesting things.

Plus: yeah, no kidding, Matt Schwartz is a powerhouse of enthusiasm and ideas. I saw him hustling around with his walkie-talkie and other secret service gadgets that night!
