    Artist EnikOne met Jack a couple of days ago. Here is his report...

    You don't know Jack! Neither did I, till I kept driving by & seeing this flashing sign "NO WAR" off the 5 freeway. I just wanted to get a up close pic. As I was getting closer this guy comes out of the dark. After some conversation he tells me his name is "Jack" has been arrested 54 times & was sentenced to 7 years in federal prison denouncing the Iraq war and Bush on ham radio. He's in his early 80's & I have a feeling he's not going to stop."
