Og studied the crowds. He could tell from the waving and flapping of familiar banners that many of the usual groups were in attendance. There was the Egg Council for a Batter Tomorrow, the Coffee Roasters for a Bitter Tomorrow, and the Dairy Conglomerate for a Butter Tomorrow. The Anti-War League was in attendance. The Sexy Librarians for Peace was also there. The Reformed Patriot Front had shown up. So too had the Patriot Front, Oardians for the Return of Decency, Animals for the Ethical Treatment of People, Citizens for Order, Citizens for Chaos, the Freedom Guild, the Tolerate Everyone Project (16), and the Traditionalists for a Brighter Past.
(16) The Tolerate Everyone Project was founded in the year 34-8A (Year 34 of the 8th Age). Its charter mandates that only people highly dedicated to equality and tolerance should be granted membership, thus it has developed into an extremely exclusive, though prestigious, organization. It survives today as a relatively small, vocal, political group. Due to its rigid standards and high moral values, at least one or two of its members are expelled each year and are publicly shunned.
