                It all started, like most good protests, with a trip to Kinko's printing to make a sign. The request came from Richard Stallman for a 3'x2' sign, mounted and able to be carried with one hand easily. Several frustrating minutes with Inkscape, two trips to the store and one foam-core backing later, we had our sign, and it stated our message clearly in black letters on white background:

Dont' Buy From ATI - enemy of your freedomI arrived early at Richard's office and he was about to take a phone call interview with a reporter from Brazil. He had recently come back from a trip to the 2nd International Conference on GPLv3 in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

Richard was pleased with the sign, even though only one supporter was able to come to the speech. News of the event came late and we were only able to get an alert to our supporters at the last minute. Chris had never been to an FSF event before and this would turn out to be an interesting introduction.

We headed to the lounge where people were already gathering for the speech. Richard had prepared some handouts for the audience, which he immediately started giving out. He gave the signs to a fellow supporters in the audience.

            "The Chernobyl disaster arose from an accident that occurred on April 26, 1986 at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Pripyat, Ukraine. It is regarded as the worst accident in the history of nuclear power. Because there was no containment building, a plume of radioactive fallout drifted over parts of the western Soviet Union, Eastern and Western Europe, Scandinavia, the British Isles, and the eastern United States. Large areas of Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia were badly contaminated, resulting in the evacuation and resettlement of over 336,000 people. About 60% of the radioactive fallout landed in Belarus according to official post-Sovietic data [1]. According to the 2006 TORCH report, half of the radioactive fallout landed outside the three soviet countries. The disaster released over four hundred times more radiation than the atomic bomb of Hiroshima."
