"more effective change agents"

OK, you know that "sanitation engineers" is the new name for "garbage men" - but what is a "more effective change agent"?

Answer.... a "more effective change agent" is - an activist. Why not just call 'em that? Well, ok, they're PAID activists-in-training.
"Two hundred student leaders converged on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol to put Congress in the `hot seat' on global warming through peaceful protest. The rally was the culmination of a seven-day grassroots activist training program called Change It, led by Greenpeace and sponsored by Seventh Generation..."

ALL EXPENSE PAID GREENPEACE TRAINING. Seventh Generation & Greenpeace are training and empowering dedicated student activists to become the next generation ... Selected students will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington


Guess nobody told them about the Y2K glitch Anon.R.mous and others are talking about...Years of bad data corrected; 1998 no longer the warmest year on record

  1. Ummmmm... a cashier who knows how to count change back to you rather than relying on the computerized cash register to do it for them?

  3. Well, a change agent is someone who makes things, er, change. A more effective change agent is one that makes things change faster. Or better. Or more. Or more effectively.

    Something like that.

    I hope I cleared this up for you.

    No. Not from Paul Gallegos' DA's Office. But I have to refile. (Chief Investigator) Hislop told me that the Eureka reporter had a similar Public Records Act Request in as well. I haven't seen any report, so maybe they didn't get theirs either.

    It is ridiculous. I can understand why he would try to hide the stats - and why he doesn't want to show the sign-in/attendance sheets for the CAST meetings. It's because neither he not his appointee Jeffrey "yougofree.com" Schwartz attended meetings.

    The Humbodt County CAST (Child Abuse Services Team) was once a model program. Now it is all but dead. Gallegos' priorities are Palco and legalizing pot. And taking vacations.

    Thanks for the reminder, I will refile my request. It's been long enough.
