[Street] [Occupybostonoutreach] [Winter] huge outreach effort--could we do this?

We discussed a full page Globe ad at some point and the price is INSANE.

I agree though. Part of tonight's proposal should be to set aside  
money for a pull page ad. We should do it in the METRO. It is cheaper  
and they have covered us daily since our inception. I am not sure how  
much it costs but the price is manageable.

I like the sound of the open house idea and advertising in the local.  
Only problem is, I don't know if we will get an ad out tomorrow by the  
deadline tonight...

We should involve the Street Team in getting the word out on this. I  
am CC'ing them on this message.
