8. There were about 40 people
We started in front of the BofA and walked over to the Wells Fargo.

It was good, we got a good reception.

We're doing it again in front of Chase at noon on Saturday. Tell her to come out! :D

10. I'll try, but she can barely walk. So it's unlikely you'll see her.
She certainly needs the help, if anything she's a poster child of the 99%, the bank refuses to modify her loan terms and has already forced her to default on a parcel she bought. She was trying to get into real estate investment to supplement her postal retirement income (which was cut in half due to early out retirement, which she had no choice but to take because she couldn't have physically worked there until retirement). Bad timing, now the government says she has an extra 100k in income because of the loan, and it's all tied up in property that she can't move.
