Of course! I thought so the minute I saw all the tents. They are nearly all unoccupied! Designed to look like there are many, many at these events. There’s actually only a handful. WHO are the few proxies who supplied these tents?
Somebody supplied extra tents? I’m so disillusioned. I thought that the empty tents meant that the OWS people were actually showing some common sense in going home for the night to a comfortable bed and a shower and coming back in the morning.
Shouldn’t have to ask around much, they gotta be Patagonia tents.
Re: the tents. I’ve strolled through the McPherson Square foco several times. Most of the tents are new, and a majority of the new ones are identical model dome tents from Coleman. Someone clearly made a bulk purchase.
There are exceptions to the rule. A few people are under tarps, in pup tents, and in other brands. But those are the exceptions.
I may dress down one of these days and infiltrate at noon to see if there’s free food. Where can I get a used Che shirt? If I’m going to go undercover, I need to look the part.
