We all do. I still think sending postcards to your reps, and phoning them, is important. Visit their office if you possibly can. Throw town hall meetings if that can be arranged, too.
I see people calling for general strikes on 9/11 or on October 17th.

My ideal demo would be a massively-huge funeral-type event, everyone dressed somberly, everyone silent, just holding up a simple sign saying something like, "No more."
