		First of all, let me make clear that I know a few of the people who marched onto the Morrison Bridge, and I admire them for their courage and dedication.
		We didn't plan on taking the bridge, our motive was to hault the traffic on the I-5, as you'll notice I was in the group that got pepper sprayed at the end of the freeway.
		The most inspiring part of the morrison bridge to me [besides of course where we almost got i-5] was how people, radicals and liberals alike, came up behind the bloc that got past the police and onto i-5.

		Running over the first bridge, the Morrison Bridge that we actually started on, was quite a nice warm up.

		Written by to John Morrison and hosted by the Hebden Bridge Web.
		Hebden Bridge's most fervoured son writes not so much with an acid pen as a vinegar-loaded felt tip about the history of 'Milltown', the peregrinations of Bill Clinton's semen, and the thin fictitious characters established in his two earlier books.
		His contribution to good neighbourliness, as an offcumden, is to take a regular condescending look at the Pennine folk in whose midst he lives along with what he describes as his kind of people, including "ne'er-do-wells, new-age therapists, lovers, loners and losers".
