Something is brewing. We have to do something. I'll post something substantive about this tomorrow.

Just sayin.

1. It isn't being shown anywhere near where we live
so we copied it from the internet and gave it to folks who needed to see it, along with links to Michael Moore's site and the petition, etc. Michael said it was ok to copy if we didn't sell it, and we didn't--we're trying to make sure that the information gets out to folks who otherwise wouldn't see it or who won't get the opportunity for a long time.

I also have fun with the health insurance folks who call my business. My boss can't afford to help us with insurance, but instead of telling them that now, I simply say, "Have you seen SICKO yet?" They hang up after some nervous laughter.

2. Sicko was brilliant and a real eye opener
even for those who already understood what Crooks there are in the Health Insurance Mafia.

I was surprised that the showing only had about 20 people in attendance.

My friend overheard others coming out of the show, about 5 remarks were positive. One couple he overheard said, "They are just trying to blame Bush for the problems they made." :mad:
