Comments on: Very-quick Appleton Tea Party thoughts (and the rest of the state) http://norunnyeggs.com/2009/04/very-quick-appleton-tea-party-thoughts-and-the-rest-of-the-state/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Was it held outdoors? I drove to another appointment, by that area about 5:10 but went west from Oneida, north of the bridge, south of College, and didn't know it was to the east. What did people's signs say? Were there any police taking down license numbers? What happened onstage? Are there photos anywhere of the event? so what was it like , besides the number of people?

The crowd looked to be 40 people wide by 80 people deep (which, if there are no gaps, would be 3,200). Just heard on Belling's show (WISN for those outside Milwaukee) there were at least 1,500 signatures on the banner they were sending to Congress, and I can assure you that not nearly everybody in attendance signed it.
