What To Do If You Are Passed a Book

Add your petition and pass the book onto someone who will do the same. Please send the book back when full or if you have no one you can pass it to. The deadline of April 1. 2011, is to avoid the postal increase set to happen mid April. Send it back even if you miss the deadline. By putting the Petition Box Project address as the return address also, the additional postage will be covered on this end.

NYC, Two Toes In

Beautifully snowy, trip to NYC to see art. It is my first time staying in a youth hostel, the Chelsea International Youth hostel to be specific. Good experience in language barriers. I put a Petition Box in the kitchen area, and discovered from the few who participated that 'petition' is not a common word easily translated from English into other languages or learned as one travels outside their native tongue. One can never underestimate the benefits of trial and error. I also discovered that how people are engaged to participate can influence the outcome of the answers. The more behind the scenes I am the more reflective the responses or if there was to be any participation at all. In any case, we got our picture taken by a couple from Denmark that participated. After trapsing around NYC for 3 days, I can understand why a four day work week would be realllly nice.
