Be very wary of the 10th of February
A few of weeks ago, shortly after the Tom Cruise Scientology video was leaked, a group of people calling themselves Anonymous decided to get together and start protesting Scientology on the internet. They did some DOS attacks and posted a bunch of papers online. (You can read more here and here.) Last week they decided to hold protests today (the 10th of February) outside of Scientology centers all around the world. Apparently it was quite a success because news media came out at many sites and a lot of the protests had 100+ people attend. (You can check out some of the protests here and keep an eye on your local news to see if they talk about it.) I was looking through the Seattle thread and I can't believe I didn't know there was a Scientology center at that corner. I've driven by that intersection more times than I can count. Of course, it is a pretty shabby building so maybe that's why. Anyway, their march took them right past the local ABC building so I'll be watching the local news to see if they mention anything. To be honest, I'm surprised all these protests turned out to be so big - I didn't think they would be able to organize that many people in public.
