4. Another disturbing bit of info: Pollok chaired group meetings consisting of himself and two infants

In order to meet the letter of OWS requirements for a Working Group to have regular meetings with a quorum of participants in order to be considered active in OWS.

According to the thread here:

I had high hopes for this Philly idea, but I thought they were moving way too fast to try and do a Continental Congress of some sort... it almost sounded like organizational provocateurs coming in and trying to restructure the movement to their liking. Now it appears my fears are correct.

Especially if the goal is to form another Reform party of some sort and sap the energy of the movement, like when William Jennings Bryan screwed over the Populist Party.
