San Francisco | Health, Housing, and Public ServicesHope for Single-Payer via a Magical Wind
Transported from their suburban homes on the Peninsula and in the South Bay, the ever intrepid Raging Grannies and a Granny-in-training flew via a magical wind (also via Caltrain and BART) to the Civic Engagement Symposium of the National Center for Creative Aging. All in order to do their civic duty. San Francisco, June 15, 2009. The Raging Grannies: promoting healthy activism through the power of songwriting and performance. Able to overcome locked doors, gates, or secured elevators in a single consensus-based bound. A miraculous breeze sends messages across the US and Canada, carrying the word whenever the strength and power of the Grannies is needed! Soon to be spread around the world...you too can be a part of this magical movement. info [at] raginggrannies.com
§Our health care system is dying and needs to be saved!
The message is heard deep in suburbia.
328 Tehama St., San Francisco, Here We Come!
Jane finds that Bill has also been drawn to the Creative Ageing event by miraculous communication. A secret ancient map took him via circuitous route to the gig.
Granny (nurse) Jane holds a bottle of magic elixir while Granny D checks her, um, behind.
Post Granny banner on the impenetrable gate, then eat of the magic cake.
Then the singalong began with songs
