I went to a local TEA party meeting last night and the organizers agreed to let me announce the release of WIJG. I went early so I could talk to Kathy the event organizer. Outside the meeting room a woman was setting up a table used for brochures and hand outs. She saw my shirt and said "Who is John Galt indeed. I wish they would make part 3 soon". I told her I was there to announce the release date and she asked if I had anything to put on the table. I gave her a stack of Shrug cards and she told people to take one as they went in. After the meeting she asked if she could take the rest with her to hand out at work. She took a pack of post its also. I made the announcement and was asked how to ensure it would be at a local theater? I'm going to send Kathy a direct link to the "Demand Atlas" page and she is going to e-mail the group. She also gave me e-mail addresses for 3 other TEA party organizers in our area. The best part was the announcement that Congressman Keith Rothfus will be the featured speaker next month. Keith is my congressman and he is highly respected amongst this group. Should be a huge turnout.

    Thanks Shrug. Looking forward to next month.I wasn't sure how receptive they would be but it went well. We did have an issue in this area with the movie America. It was only in a few theaters and none really close by. I tweeted and liked the "demand atlas" webpage. Hope we get a wider release.

    Thanks Pirate. I just sent a message to Congressman Rothfus asking him to share the Facebook quote and release date. He has a pretty big following.

    I was pleased with the reaction. The meeting doesn't start til 7 so I stopped for a beer when I got there. A group of 6 guys saw my shirt and came over to ask who John Galt is. I like when that happens.
