[arg_discuss] TOW: Have you ever consulted a lawyer before you did something ARG-related?

[Sjoerd Wennekes]

Yes, I did!
Well, it wasn't really a lawyer. But I asked permission for a flash mob.
With a lot of people (and I mean a lot!) we were celebrating the coming of spring with a chalking-fest! ;-)
This took place at a big town-square in the city of Utrecht (the Netherlands) 
Because this chalking-frenzy was part of my graduation, I had to ask permission from the local authority. (School didn't want to get in some kind of trouble)

Of course they agreed, it just chalking!
