Members of the Utility Workers of American are picketing Con Edison at its main office in Manhattan after contract negotiations ended in a deadlock early Sunday.  Over a hundred union members and supporters flanked both sides of Irving Place shouting at Con Ed employees, demanding the protection of their benefits and receiving vocal support from traffic and passers by.  WBAI's Lucas Reckhaus was there and files this report.
