[sudo-discuss] We are down an Ed

[Ed Biow]

Ed Rippy Jr. <http://erippy.home.mindspring.com/> died Tuesday, November
1st after a long battle with lung cancer. He was a veteran activist, a
sudoroom <sudoroom.org> member, the web master for the Oscar Grant
Committee <http://www.oscargrantcommittee.org/>, very involved in Occupy
Concord, an excellent writer, active in 9/11 issues & the fight against
imperialism, and much, much more.

Sunday at 1PM his friends will gather at Vinnie’s Bar & Grill
<http://vinniesbar.com/> at 2045 Mount Diablo Street
<https://www.google.com/maps?f=q&source=embed&hl=en&geocode&q=2045+mt+diablo+st,+concord,+ca&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=38.22949,60.820313&ie=UTF8&ll=37.987707,-122.031155&spn=0.009303,0.014849&z=14&iwloc=A>
in downtown Concord to celebrate his life and maybe raise a few bucks
for his cremation, etc. There will be three great local bands, Blue
Moonshine <http://bluemoonshinerocks.com/>, The Breedloves
<http://www.the-breedloves.com/> & Celtic trio Sin Silver
<http://www.sinsilverandtheavenue.com/>, as well as some BBQ, all for
only a $5 cover.  The event will go on until 8 PM.

I've tried to step up and take over some of Ed's responsibilities for
the Oscar Grant Committee's web site, I'm not superstitious just because
he is my namesake (crossing himself violently even though he is an
atheist, thank God).

I might have room for a person or two if they show up at the Oakland
Museum around 4 PM, some of us OO folks are meeting on the stairs there
at 2 PM for the free day to see the Black Panther special exibit.
