After securing the perimeter, Peace Brigades International, (www.peacebrigades.org), assisted in their bridge-building efforts by Bridges for Peace (www.peaebridges,org), organized massive teach-ins on non-violent communication (www.cnvc.org), mediation training, (www.ilr.cornell.edu/icr, www.crtraining.org, www.mediatorswithoutborders.org, along with many others too numerous to mention), and leadership for a nuclear-free future (www.napf.org, www.idds.org, etc.). Halliburton executives, having caught wind of the sighting of a particularly talented member of the species "Pan troglodytes automobilius" in his non-native habitat, sporting a bicycle helmet instead of his customery jaunty driving cap, were so flustered they broke ranks, and having been out-AMPODed (see www.urbandictionary.com - under "entries submitted, to be taken up by committee") by said Chimp, promptly broke out into song (www.newsongsforpeace.org, www.friendshipvillage.com) and dance(www.dancesofuniversalpeace.org). Chimp, in his turn, was so overcome (see www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happiness), he decided to organize the first of many wildly successful symposia on "Preserving Human Rights in the New Era of Re-localization", especially designed for human rights lawyers, a task he took up right then in there in the park, slosh and all (since he was opposed to unnecessary travel of any sort). As luck would have it, all these events were picked up by not only the exceptionally astute Leanan of TOD (www.theoildrum.com), but by DemocracyNow! (www.democracynow.org), www.peacenews.info (magazine of War Resisters International), and, to the surprise of many, but not all - the maestro of mainstream media himself - none other than Prof. G. Meanwhile, back on the Big Island, (www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Island), Cheryl and AMPOD2 (AKA Mr. K), met up with none other than JH (Yes, the very same) while they were out hiking. "Have you heard?" they said. "No," said JH. "We've invented the first all-green, eco-friendly rat trap! And...Oh yes, there was oil discovered in Central Park, and a love-peace-teach-in and..." "This changes my plans somewhat," interrupted JH. "We hoped you'd say that," said Cheryl and Mr. K. So, before long, a committee to bring "Peak Oil Awareness and the Benefit of a Hundred Mules" was set up by the more ambitious members of TOD...to be continued.
