Happy New Year! Here's an Idea TO FIGHT BACK... is it sound?

Recently folks at MIT distinguished themselves for doing something better than anyone else. Finding some balloons. Perhaps this exercise can be put to a better purpose. Here is one link I found with no effort - may I ask you to examine the issue? CLICK HERE

THE CHALLENGE

" This Saturday, December 5th, DARPA will be deploying 10 large, red weather balloons at 10 fixed locations in the United States. (more info)

DARPA is giving $40,000 to the first team of people to find all 10 balloons. Join the MIT team, invite your friends and you can win money, help science, and help charity! (see how it works) "

Can we all agree we have shared problems? Can we identify, say one problem, then having agreed that it is one we all share, decide to focus our collective power as citizens on this problem to force action? (PSST - The answer is YES)

OK - let's say, for the sake of argument, that we can all agree that the credit card companies in general - but perhaps one specifically is abusing us.

Combining the ability of the folks at MIT to "get the word out" to take action toward a specific defined goal at a specific time of a specific description - is it reasonable to collectively say - hey - let's get the word out that on such and such a day we will target such and such credit card company - and do X?

This may seem radical - but it is certainly peaceful. Just some food for thought.

As far as the specifics - bring the ideas on and let's see what we can do together.
