[BadVista Advocate] An ad campaign idea

[Don Hensley]

Possibly , if approached correctly, it might be possible to get it picked up 
as a news item by one of the networks (if one picks it up all of them would).

Lots of media coverage that way. No doubt more then we could ever buy.

This might be done by having a physical rally located at a movie theater that 
would be running the production. Or possibly using a projector at night on 
some handy surface --like the wall of a building.

If it was done in Boston I'm sure it would get coverage... just toss in a few 
LED's. ;)

I also would chip in a few bucks. But I think getting something actually 
produced first might be the thing to concentrate on for starters.

Don.
PS. I loved the "IT ATE MY BABY!!!!" --although that's just my humor, it 
probably wouldn't go down well with Mrs. Joe Sixpack. Sometimes mothers can 
be remarkably lacking in seeing the humor in some things...
