[Sosfbay-discuss] Fwd: Nader Movie

Wed Mar 7 11:33:12 PST 2007

I want to go ASAP in this area.  Which means Friday, March 16th.

NOTE: Remember the anti war rally is March 17th.

And for those who may want to inform others of where the movie
is showing, around the United States:

     http://www.anunreasonableman.com/calendar.cfm

I am somewhat unhappy that it seems to be showing in not very
many places.  We should encourage as many as possible to see
it as soon as possible, so that might encourage others to go
see it and other theatres to show it.
