Avatars hold peace march today

The RootsCamp folks in Second Life, the on-line world, are holding a virtual march on Capitol Hill today.

It’s intended to mirror Sunday’s march on the real Capitol.

Rep. George Miller, D-Martinez, and Berkeley-based Clear Ink created Capitol Hill island earlier this year to bring the swearing-in of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi into Second Life.

So, if you want to march for peace without leaving your house, risking arrest or dressing in enough layers to withstand a Washington winter, fire up your avatar.
