Occupy Harrisburg & Quakers

There is a post at firedoglake by progressivechris about Occupy in Harrisburg.  Here is an excerpt:

"Second, Occupy Harrisburg owes a deep debt of gratitude to The Society of Friends, those are the wonderful people some of you may know as Quakers. “The Friends” would no doubt be embarrassed by this outpouring of thankfulness, as they are people who do their work quietly, without fanfare, and who seek only to provide good in the world. Still, I must thank them publicly, because they have provided us shelter for our General Assemblies (inside their Meeting House), have provided us with a kitchen and storage area (again, at their Meeting House) and have, in effect, joined our cause and our community. We cannot thank them enough either. Thank you so much!!"
