We have just set up our tents, and the banner is looking pretty fine. More importantly, my toes are feeling significantly warmer now that I’ve discovered the wonder of my roommate’s Uggs. Who knows what time HUPD will show up tonight? Interestingly, this will be our first time sleeping out for the second time on the same day of the week – OK, that was confusing. I mean that we slept out last Tuesday and we’re sleeping out again this Tuesday, so we’re wondering if the same officers will be patrolling. We’ve been told that if we refuse to leave when they arrive, we will be arrested. Looking forward to another great sleep out. Can we break 3 hours?
Hm, that was interesting. A man just rode up to our site on a bike asking what we were doing this for. When I told him that we are sleeping out for clean electricity, he responded with “Oh, so you believe Al Gore and the global warming hoax?” He then proceeded to tell me to read up on climate gate and that everyone is lying to me. I didn’t say much back and after a minute or so he rode away.

Still no sign of HUPD. But there’s a group of guys dressed in camo – and t-shirts at that! They must be cold – who are one by one running up to the John Harvard statue and kissing the foot. That’s kind of gross…don’t they know where that foot has been? But it’s good entertainment while John is on the conference call.
The Next Morning
Answer to “Can we break 3 hours?”: No. HUPD arrived, as expected. It was the same officer as the night before and he was quite friendly. We look forward to seeing him again tonight!
