I want to fold PF, but you are getting 11:1, so calling can't be that wrong.

On the flop I just fold - you've got bottom pair, no draw, and even if CO has something like 89o then you are only about even money to win the hand. Plus you don't know who else might wake up with a hand.

You guys are being a little too pessimistic. These low limit games play pretty passively. You aren't going to get checkraised often so not closing the action in a limped pot is not that great a concern. Anyone with a "big hand" like a set who checks through the flop the first time is going to wait for the turn. Thats what 10/20 fish do. Raising is pretty awful though. When he bets you can just peel one and try to improve. You are a little short on odds but with implieds you are fine. The key though as garland says is recognizing the flop textures like this one where your money cards don't make anyone else's hand.

I guess I should have been more clear - when I wrote my response I was thinking that OP had actually raised the flop (that seemed to be what he was suggesting). By "wake up" I didn't mean that I was afraid of a c/r so much as someone calling 2 with a K or 7. I agree that calling is better than raising, but I'd still be worried about someone else having a hand like A7, which cuts into our implied odds a lot.
