DESCRIPTION:The Biotechnology Industry already has a huge presence in San Diego, but 
 come June 17-20 they plan on taking over. Their international annual 
 convention is being held at the downtown Convention Center on Harbor Dr. 
 They will be discussing the usual BIO subjects: how to commodify the 
 world's food production, genetically modify crops to disrupt 
 sustainability, profit from human and non-human animal illnesses and 
 torture, create weapons and the wars to sell their products, spin their 
 unethical choices and buy public officials to fulfill their agenda. Sound 
 like a good time? Well if you have $2300 I encourage you to attend and 
 learn just how they plan to shape our world! But......\n\nIf you don't have 
 that twenty-three hundred laying around to waste on watching scientists and 
 capitalists patting themselves on the back speaking of ways to profit from 
 the destruction of nature visit the free autonomous counter convention in 
 the downtown Children's Park, across the street from the Convention Center, 
 on Thursday, June 19th. Make your way to the trolley orange line and get 
 off at the Convention Center stop (we don't need those pollutin' cars, 
 besides theres no free parking downtown Thursdays anyhow!) From one p.m. to 
 seven p.m. you can enjoy the SD weather outside with the community while 
 enjoying free hot meals provided by Food Not Bombs, share free goods or 
 skills during the Really (really!) Free Market, learn about and embrace a 
 sustainable future at one of the multiple workshops taking place throughout 
 the day and network with the groups in San Diego that are working to make 
 that future possible. \n\n1PM Free Lunch and Share at the Free 
 Market\n\n2-4PM Workshops!\nUrban and Guerilla Gardening, Biological 
 Weapons, Alternative Energy, Animal Testing, Collective Practice and 
 Womyn's Health\n\n4PM Microbiologist Mike Copass speaks about the risks of 
 genetic manipulation and the corporate industry that profits from 
 it.\n\n5-7PM Entertainment and Games!\nMake some noise and let the 
 Biotechies hear ya.\n
