It seems that the Flagston kids haven’t heard about the 24-Hour Economic Blackout. But if they had, I doubt they’d care.
Will this effort make a difference to anything? I doubt it. Even its organizer acknowledges that it won’t. But then, he says, the next one will be longer.
The only money our household will be spending today will be on dinner at our favorite (slow, Thai) restaurant, supporting a local business while being happy eaters.

It won't make a difference, just like calling Mary Miller won't make a different, but it's a good thing to do! The right thing.
And good things do add up...
I consider this boycott a trial run. Americans have been sleepy. We need practice at getting going, getting brave.
Yes to all. I can imagine larger, longer-lasting efforts in the not distant future.
