The Paxil Protest: Important September 20th update

RR · 09-20-2005, 09:50 AM

Due to the growing number of potential participants: Plans for a protest pre-assembly (at the Wyndham hotel lobby) have been dispensed with. Instead, we ask that you proceed directly to the sidewalks adjacent to GlaxoSmithKline at 200 North 16th Street. A table will be set up where participants can pick up signs, bumper stickers and handbills. Plan on arriving at 8 a.m. Eastern Standard Time.

How big is this going to be? Maybe we could break the protest into smaller groups for those with social anxiety disorder. Even better, maybe since we'll be so close to GSK those with social anxiety disorder could get some free samples of Paxil....

Definitely. I need to meet some more people who have been through this and are currently going through it. I also need to be counted in the crowd that is working to get the info out there to the patients, their families, and doctors. I need to be there.

I also love visiting friends in Philly.

I expect several slices of pizza may go missing during my stay.
