It is awe inspiring to think that this many people can come together, have fun, and cause no trouble while making a friendly statement.  I hope we see more of these.  Perhaps people interested in fighting hunger can assemble for a "free-rice" rally in front of all politicians homes at midnight or group hug demonstrations for peace at sunrise....I am really happy that the Internet is being used for fun and friendly actions that bring people together.  This is promising!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pamela]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 8:28AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flash Mob 'Silent Rave' Shuts Down London Train Station]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</guid><description><![CDATA[I never could have imagined the use of the internet in this way.  If as Pamela eludes to, we could channel this type of communication to aid those in need in our country, how awsome would that be.  President Obama talks of shortages in food banks, but how do we help?<br><br>What if these facebookers etc, set up a day this next week for mobs to show up at their local food bank and bring at least one food item with them.  <br><br>I could see many problems solved with this type of mass action through this type of communication. I bet the hippies in the 60's wish they had this available to them for accomplishing their causes.  In the spirit of Volunteerism that the president has asked for can one of you set this up... but I would suggest you notify the police and the food bank of your plan.  I am sure your mob will be a welcome sight to those in need. Keep it to non-refrigerated items.  Gift cards to grocery or other stores could also be given.  Please, terrorists, political demonstrators and scam artists don't see this as an opportunity that will forever quelch this type of global effort on the part of people working together. Our world needs this type of acting as a group for everyone. Can we use our powers for good and not evil, just once.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rachel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 13th 2009 10:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flash Mob 'Silent Rave' Shuts Down London Train Station]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's articles like this that make me realize I REALLY am old - what the heck is the point of these flash gatherings?

They're not hurting anybody, they're not causing any damage. It's just good-natured fun. I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. And hey; some people have some pretty dang good ideas of what could be done with this concept. Donating money to charity, serving food to the hungry, all sorts of things can be accomplished when people get together. Why not? I think it'd be awesome to hold a random free picnic or something along those lines. Everyone bring a dish, we could feed an entire city!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kika]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 1:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Flash Mob 'Silent Rave' Shuts Down London Train Station]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/02/09/flash-mob-silent-rave-shuts-down-london-train-station/</guid><description><![CDATA[I forgot that fun was illegal now.
