    12 August 2009   TIME TO ‘SEIZE THE MOMENT’!   (Thanks David for alerting us to this one!)   Hi folks!    HUGE $WINE FLU CONFERENCE TO BE HELD IN WASHINGTON 19-21 AUGUST!! Conference: International Swine Flu Conference Dates, Conference: August 19-20, 2009 Date, Workshop: August 21, 2009 Venue: Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill 400 New Jersey Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C., USA 20001 I SUGGEST WE HAVE SOME PEOPLE REGISTERED TO ATTEND! Also -a  PEACEFUL protest outside – drawing attention to the $WINE FLU SCAM (happening INSIDE) – would be BRILLIANT! TAKE ‘THE DEBATE’ TO THEM! Imagine how powerful that would be – having some of  OUR people exposing the $WINE FLU SCAM – inside their own Conference! It’s expensive to register – but I reckon it would be an INVESTMENT! Have a handout with a series of HARD QUESTIONS to distribute to attendees (and media)! Presumably there will be media coverage. The thing would be to have independent media there to cover it – get it up  on you tube etc. Asking the HARD QUESTIONS from ‘inside the tent’ can be VERY powerful! WHAT DO PEOPLE  THINK?????
