That's right... ONE MILLION.

While we're at it, one lucky post-it graffiti artist is going to win big. Post-it, snap it, share it, and you might just find yourself at the ASP3 World Premiere.

    Obviously I'm a bit late for the contest, but still - also obviously - a good idea. I'm potting a pack of Post-it Notes in my pocket and it's time to get "liberal" with spreading them (the only way I will likely ever get "liberal") hee hee hee

    I used my notes up in the airport and on the plane to Vegas. I was afraid they might think I was tanpering with the smoke detectors. A stewardess on the Southwest flight I was on did ask the cabin "Who is John Galt? a few on the plane got got it but most were like Huh?

    I understand your desire for adding value to a 50 cent stack of post-it notes. But if you think I don't value my own hard work enough to use a pen and said post-its if I wish to pass on this message, you obviously did not understand, or care to, the message intended from the literature. Maybe the govmnt can give us some money for your fancy notes...ANGRY AT YOU...

    So I ordered and received my post its. They are well done and I believe they would raise awareness of the movie. But I haven't posted any. This seems like a violation of property rights. It's like putting up a poster for your band on the window of a store. You would ask. People paid money to generate traffic to their store and now you are using that to your own ends. I think I'll limit my postings to places I ask and government buildings.

    copied and pasted from my response above: eah.... I have posted some on Twitter #WhoIsJohnGalt & #JohnGalt2014 ... Some I transferred to my iMac and meant to combine them on one sheet but then dumped them before so doing. Could not retrieve them. Sometimes I post them and don't always get photos. Will try to do more with the few I have left.

    I am having so much fun with the Post It challenge .... been hitting my CrossFit gym, my LAVFW/VFW Post, Walmart, Walgreens, Sam's Club, BJ's, Aldi, Tropical Smoothie, Publix, Chase Bank ATM, Michael's, Joann's, Hancocks.

    Been placing Post Its between items, inside the doors of cupboards, inside the wrapper of flower bouquets, on the underside of shelves so you can see them when you sit down to test out a chair like at Sam's or BJ's, in windows on signs where you can only see them on the front side of signs as you come in the door, between the pages of pattern books or the flip books when you order a cake or items on a shelf, in the movie theatre at the popcorn counter.

    I think I only have about 50 Post Its left!

    I think a stencil would be nice. Much more durable, very fast to "leave the tag", and there are plenty of graffiti-covered walls that could use a rational touch. If you're afraid of going to jail, that just means you're sane in these times. I haven't seen anyone in this area "sent up" for graffiti--ever.

    I'm not talking about damaging private property. I refer to abandoned buildings, any road infrastructure (which taxpayers paid for, remember), municipal/state/federal buildings (ditto)--the last could benefit especially from the message.

    Will actual painted "who is John Galt" also be considered, or only postits?

    you can do that...I say it is worth the $21 bucks to post those babies all over..famous places in London? It will help drive traffic in the US which will speed the date in the UK.
