from event organizer Grace Braley:
To commemorate the 10th Anniversary of 9/11, Mainers will gather in the
evening to ring the Back Cove in Portland with light, for a different world
- one of enlightenment!
 
We’ll go to Back Cove at 6 pm, and flashlights and candles turned on at 7:30
(half an hour after sunset) will represent a future of positive thinking and
acting, instead of the fear and anger of the last 10 years.
 
We want to shine lights for a world where children are safe and people are
not thirsty or hungry.
 
We want alternatives to war.  We want to stop degrading the ideals of this
country or degrading ourselves in the eyes of the world. 
 
No more mistaken killings or torture.   6000 American lives have been lost –
tens of thousands of others from several countries.  Countless maimed and
forever physically and psychologically scarred.
 
Instead we want honest work, sharing wealth between rich and poor.
 
$3.2 trillion has been lost.  “Bring our war $$$ home” for health,
education, jobs.  For the future of our children.  For the necessary
challenge to save the environment.
 
"War is Not the Answer"
 
"Another World is Possible"
