  Not only should they be better than the commie papers (which do suck
majorly), but we anarchists should make a strong effort to give them
away for free as opposed to asking for money.  I think it says a lot
about communists that they can't give away their literature for free.

  I wonder what would happen if the ISO people unionized?  How would
their leaders handle it?  :) 

  Also, at a16, a friend and I were walking through the ellipse when
this guy jumps in front of us and yells "Socialist revolution!"  Almost
out of instinct, we reply in unison, "Anarchist Revolution!!"  It was
cool.

  In any case, I do think that, for now, flyers are the way to go.
Short, simple, to the point.  I've done quite a few different flyer 
designs, either in .GIF or .DOC format.  I'll try and put them up
sometime soon...

  Here's one that I'm going to be giving out for Mayday:

  You need the BellGothic adobe font, but another font should work fine,
you might need to reformat a bit, though.
