[washingtonpost.com] January 13, 2005--"This administration . . . has earned themselves a protest," said Candice Kearns, 25, a junior at Naropa University in Boulder, Colo., who will ride in a caravan for 1,627 miles to get to Washington.

Like many other protesters seeking housing, Kearns is relying on the kindness of strangers: She is one of about 30 Colorado activists, all but one of whom will stay at a Mount Pleasant Episcopal church. District, Maryland and Virginia activists are opening their homes to protesters, posting accommodations on the Internet.
