I saw these guys last Friday night and I wish I had slowed down enough to realize what was going on. I declined and they were all very nice in accepting that response. I've read one of the issues from Nashville and it was quite good. I do wonder how big a market we have downtown. I walked around on Friday night for about an hour and was asked four or five times if I wanted to buy a copy. I'll certainly try to support this because of all the potential good it might do. It is difficult to know, always, how to respond to approaches from homeless people. I write a blog about downtown and spent quite a bit of time recently on the topic of panhandling (which I don't see this as being). If you'd like to check it out, you'll find the blog at http://www.stuckinsideofknoxville.blo.... The first blog in that series is called "How Does it Feel."
