 more info and details please see  http://scwit.org\n\n--------\n\nPolitical 
 Theater on Pacific Garden Mall\nCommemorating the 61st Anniversary of the 
 Nuclear Bombing of Hiroshima\n\nDismantling the Bomb/Constructing 
 Peace\n\nThe Santa Cruz Weapons Inspection Team (SCWIT) invites the public 
 to participate with them in political theater at 12 noon on the Pacific 
 Garden Mall in front of O'Neill's to mark the 61st anniversary of the U.S. 
 nuclear bombing of Hiroshima.\n\nFrom the first nuclear bombs that the U.S. 
 dropped on Japan in 1945 to the deadly "depleted" uranium it deployed in 
 both Iraq wars, to the earth-penetrating "bunker busters" it projects 
 detonating in Iran, our nation has forged a multibillion dollar business 
 out of nuclear weapons technology. The largest and most profitable 
 designer, manufacturer, and merchant of those weapons is Lockheed Martin, 
 that operates a 4,400 acre facility at the end of Empire Grade in Santa 
 Cruz. Our Bonny Doon-based Lockheed Martin facility manufactures and tests 
 Contained Detonating Fuses (CDFs) for the deadliest weapon ever made - the 
 Trident II D5 nuclear submarine missile.\n\nDismantling the 
 Bomb/Constructing Peace expresses sorrow for the full spectrum of victims 
 of the nuclear weapons industry - workers exposed to the hazards of 
 producing weapons, communities that suffer environmental degradation from 
 their production, military personnel who are poisoned by their use, and, of 
 course, the human and other living beings who are targeted by such weapons. 
 On this day we will honor those women, men, and children in Japan whose 
 lives and the lives of successive generations were shattered 61 years ago. 
 This action also collectively imagines and calls for alternatives to the 
 nuclear weapons industry, alternatives that convert the science of nuclear 
 destruction into the science of life-sustaining industries and renewable 
 energy.\n\nAugust 6, 2006 12 o'clock noon at the corner of Pacific and 
 Cooper\n\nQuestions? Contact: call Lynda at 831-840-4176 or email us at:
