DESCRIPTION:The Really Really Free Market\n(In Memory of Kirsten Brydum)\nSaturday, 
 Oct. 25, 2008, noon and on\nDolores Park, San Francisco\n\nIn celebration 
 of the amazing life of Kirsten Brydum, an organizer of the Really Really 
 Free Market and many other fantastically idealistic projects, we will 
 gather together to make the best RRFM ever. If you knew Kirsten, bring your 
 memories, your words, your pictures…If you are a regular of the RRFM, 
 bring your talents, your smile, food, music, objects to give away freely, 
 and lots of love…If you have never come before, this is the time to 
 experience and help create the world you (YES, YOU!) always hoped was 
 possible. \nAbout the RRFM\nBecause there is enough for everyone \nBecause 
 sharing is more fufilling than owning\nBecause corporations would rather 
 see landfills overflow than anyone get anything for free\nBecause scarcity 
 is a myth constructed to keep us at the mercy of the economy\nBecause a 
 sunny day outside is better than anything money can buy\nBecause "free 
 trade" is a contradiction of terms\nBecause no one should have to do 
 without food, shelter, entertainment, and community\nBecause life should be 
 a picnic, but it only will be if we make it happen\nHave you ever picked up 
 something you found on the sidewalk? Or saved your neighbor from throwing 
 away something useful?\nA Really Really Free Market is like a potluck for 
 whatever you want to give or take away. Have you ever brought one dish to a 
 potluck and gone away with a full belly and a balanced meal? Everybody 
 brings something and goes away with more.\nWe all have skills, ideas, 
 objects, smiles, talents, friendship, excitement, discussions, and many 
 other things to share. If we bring them all together at the Really Really 
 Free Market, we can provide more balanced and full lives for everyone.\nAs 
 a community we have many more resources than we do as individuals. If we 
 share our resources we won't need to buy as many new ones. This uses fewer 
 of the Earth's resources, and fewer of our working hours, leaving us more 
 time to devote to ourselves and our communities.\nWould we all work forty 
 hours a week at one job if we didn't feel we had to? What if instead we 
 worked at improving our individual skills and talents and shared them with 
 each other? We would all spend more time doing things we enjoyed.\nThe 
 Really Really Free Market is an attempt to put these ideas into practice 
 for four hours every month.\nPlease help us keep the Really Really Free 
 Market a 100% FREE and non-commercial event. Once a month, let's come 
 together and forget about trading, bartering and money. Leave the business 
 cards at home and remember the joy of giving for the sake of giving.\nHelp 
 us keep Dolores Park clean. If no one takes what you brought, please bring 
 it home with you.\n
