Transmuting the present • Securing the future

"Let us do it in a concerted rather than a scattered effort.  Let us plan well. it is necessary to clear the entire city, the entire state." (1)

While groups are currently organizing all around the country to help bring about positive change in the U.S., let’s mobilize to do what we do best to clean up the nation, state by state, by wielding the sword of the word to help clean up America.

“To lessen in force or intensity, as wrath, grief, harshness, or pain; moderate; to make less severe: to mitigate a punishment; to make (a person, one's state of mind, disposition, etc.) milder or more gentle.”  (2)

We invite all our brothers and sisters from around the world to join us in our mission to clear America, if you can, through November 2010. After which time, perhaps we will expand our efforts internationally.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon_%28Nashville%29

(Today, the Parthenon, which functions as an art museum, stands as
the centerpiece of Centennial Park, a large public park just west of
downtown Nashville. Alan LeQuire's 1990 re-creation of the
Athena Parthenos statue is the focus of the Parthenon just as it was
in ancient Greece. The building is a full-scale replica of the Athenian
original; and the statue of Athena Parthenos within is a reconstruction
of the long lost original to careful scholarly standards: she is cuirassed
and helmeted, carries a shield on her left arm and a small (6 ft) statue of
Victory in her right palm, and stands 42 feet (13 m) high, gilt with more
than eight pounds of gold leaf; an equally colossal serpent rears its head
between her and her shield.)
