walked in and without any fuss got my letter received and got a copy of it.. Out the door in under 5 minutes. OC'ing? 
Just the way I like it. 
I keep telling people, and either no one listens, or no one seems to believe me: 1: 90% Just Don't Notice. 2: 9% Notice, and Don't Care. 3: 1% Notice, Care, But Mind their own Business. 4: 1% Notice, Care, and may actually speak to you and/or call the police. (When they do, nothing comes of it anyway, as you've done nothing wrong.)
All that said, keep in mind that 87% of statistics are made up on the spot. 
But you get the general idea...

But, yeah. While OC is not generally my cup of tea, I did it for several months straight because I don't like untested theories. (Man with a gun call theories.) Hardly ever got a second look.

Do we have a particular place to meet? Or should I just look for the group surrounded by the Brady Campaign?

I would think the main gathering would be on the south steps (the ones facing DT St Paul), or just inside, in bad weather. (Though it's currently predicted to be 60s and sunny.)
I'd say best bet would be to cluster up with other OC'ers, and let CC'ers gather round, as well. There will be a larger demo against taxation going on, as well, likely a very sympathetic bunch.
Keep your eyes open for OC'ers, and hang around them.
Does anyone have an agenda for us, or are we there to provide a sub contingent for the anti tax group? Will they have speakers? If they don't, will we?

It would be nice if we had a speaker also. This rally isn't just about high taxes but about government being too large and infringing on our rights and freedoms.

I sadly can't do it after work. 
By the time I get out and drive into town, all the fun would be over. Wife does not approve of me taking one of "our" vacation days to go and spend in a protest.
I hope one of you fellas takes some video and youtube's it. I'd love to see some OC at the capitol and participate vicariously. I'll even OC at my computer while I watch.
