Monitoring the Washington DC Craigslist "event gigs" section could be interesting

I tried posting the original link but it doesn't come out. Will check it out again and post back.

Pretty obvious who this is. You get a free red hat.

Apparently Craigslist isn't happy about being used to set up astroturfing projects.
