Subject: (abolition-usa) "Oboe 3" Nuclear test scheduled Thursday
Date: 01 Feb 2000 21:38:14 -0800
Friends,
We are sad to announce that the DOE is planning another assault on the womb of Mother Earth, this time calling it "Oboe 3". Derek Scammell of the DOE confirmed that the shot will go off on Thursday, February 3, 2000, probably mid-afternoon.
We are planning Sunrise Ceremony at Peace Camp (south side of Mercury Exit, 65 miles northwest of Las Vegas off US 95), followed by a creative non-violent direct action. At 3 pm we will be at the Foley Federal Bldg. (300 S. Las Vegas Blvd) to demonstrate the connection between nuclear weapons and nuclear waste. We will proceed to the Fremont St. Experience around 4:15 pm to hand out leaflets and exercise our first amendment rights.
We hope to see you there, and if you are not in the area, please let us know of any solidarity actions you may do.
If you live in the Bay Area, contact Sally Light at Tri-Valley CARES about events going on there -- 925-443-7148
These tests violate the Treaty of Ruby Valley and threaten international ratification of a Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, they also leave the deadliest substance ever created mere feet from the largest aquifer in Southern Nevada, please do everything you can think of to stop this madness.
