[Sosfbay-discuss] Bike for Carol & Tian & A Million Votes forPeace!

[Bob Alavi]

Yo Brian, Drew and all.  Thanks for the note.
   
  The last time I bought a Small Helium Tank was in 2004 for Stephanie around $25. It didn't have "much" capacity.  Did about 50 ordinary size baloons. Tank was not re-usable! :(   In this case, we may be able to go for a reusable/refillable industrial size large helium tank -- I don't have a clue where or how much -- then share the cost proportionately amongst candidates. 

  I like the idea of bicycle trailer trains.  I saw a mom on her bike with a bike trailer & kid pedaling, AND PULLING a third "child trailer (with little kid riding).  It was an awesome attention grabbing train.  Very Unique.  She was Northbound on "Church" going from MV towards Palo ALto when I saw her crossing Shoreline.
   
  Also, for Tian (Harter), we have pretty much picked a HEART shape as an attention grabbing campaign theme.  What should we pick for Carol?  Any ideas?

  Hi Bob,

Kites. I love it. I've been thinking a few helium balloons could raise
banners very visibly, for instance in Freeway zones. How much does
a tank of helium cost? I could get a lot of people to buy shares.

Carol's contact is Carol. cbrouillet at igc.org. 650-857-0927

If you can't get get through to her, call me 650.327.6214 and I
can usually get her to pick up the phone.

Brian
