Media Coverage

This section is articles from various newspapers I've collected off the net. Many thanks to those that typed or scaned these in. It's important to realize that many in the media have great difficulty explaining the Gatherings to their readers, and many seem to have a very negative impression of the Gatherings. At the best,. most of these are slanted, and not very objective. Still, these are interesting and amusing. A personal favorite is the article about the Vermont Gathering
