Progress so far

Bought some bonds t-shirts to get made into anti-howard t-shirts.
Bought domain 'saynotohoward.com'
(http://howardthecoward.com/ has been taken already!)

Naismith has arranged for jojati to do the initial hosting.

Reading the "Not Happy John" book, each chapter makes it
easier and easier to dislike the guy. He may as well
be a fascist dictator, at least dictators dont operate
under the guise of a democracy, and you know what your getting.

Started working on design for website.

recruited Chad into doing some filming.

Decided that i will hang two banners from my window, one
saying "www.SAY NO TO HOWARD.com" and another one above
that which will change. eg. "Howard charges $100,000+ for uni
degree" and "Howard locks up children in detention centres"
"Howard plans to spend $1b on 8 helicopters" and have helicopter
sounds coming from my apartment.

Most people have agreed to help in some shape and form
with their tasks, which is good news,

BIG THANKS to everyone.

I dont know, but lets see what happens. The plan is to
make the biggest possible footprint in the campaign
against John Howard, with the resources I have available.

Ill need help for my friends if im going to be succesful,
so Ive come up with a list of things everyone can do, but
im also prepared if no one does anything!

The plan is to document the whole process over the next
weeks culminating with a party at my place come election
