    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi, John, et al.:  <br>
      <br>
      <br>
            Who can take the lead on making this happen, since you won't
      be around?  <br>
      <br>
      <br>
            If we can find a champion to organize this and get out the
      word, I'll support it.  Otherwise, I think you're trying to push a
      river.  <br>
      <br>
      <br>
           Do you know anyone active in the Prop 37 campaign?  I'm
      copying Susie Barton, because I know she has been working this
      issue.  <br>
      <br>
      <br>
      SUSIE:  John Thielking is talking about showing a movie in favor
      of Prop 37 on Friday, Nov. 2 at the Peace Center.  We can get the
      space if we can get the audience.  Do you have time and interest
      in helping to make that happen?  If yes, I'll see if we can get
      the County Council of the Santa Clara Greens to support that.

                                us (they are really bad for us and for
                                farm animals).  In the Yes On N campaign
                                about water fluoridation being banned in
                                Santa Cruz, which passed and became law,
                                a lot of the debate hinged on the
                                dangers of fluoridation, not so much on
                                the nuts and bolts of the initiative
                                that simply stated that nothing could be
                                added to the water to treat humans as
                                opposed to treating the water.  I did
                                spring for a wi fi adapter for my
                                laptop, but if it would be better to
                                play the video from a hard drive I can
                                do that instead.  I called Shelby and
                                confirmed that the Peace Center has
                                cables to run from the laptop to the
                                projector and the sound system.  Another
                                thing that the video points out is that
                                there is a voluntary "GMO free" labeling
                                initiative afoot similar to the labels
                                on milk saying that the milk is rBGH
                                free.  The market share of products with
                                those labels is growing by 250% per
                                year.  As for campaigning for prop 37,
                                handing out fliers for the movie would
                                do some of that too.  You can hand out 3
                                fliers per minute, as opposed to
                                spending 5 minutes or more contacting
                                and talking to each person that you
                                manage to reach going door to door.  We
                                can put the url for the movie on the
                                flier so that people who can't make the
                                exact date and time can still watch the
                                movie.</div>
