About 20-25 Billionaires for Coal turned out to host a cocktail party, complete with croquet and badminton, on the steps of the Bank of America building in downtown San Francisco. The building housed banks like Lehman Brothers, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, all billion dollar donors to Big Coal and helping to fund climate change. Cassius A. Blankcheque then called each of the bank CEOs from down below, broadcasting the phone call over the loudspeakers, requesting their attendance in the "mahvelous cocktail party down on their patio!" Then Justin.tv turned up and helped broadcast the event to over 200,000 people who were watching online. Great job folks!
