The Scarlet Pimpernel Speaks
Dear Freewaybloggers,
We Did It! More than 700 of us posted freeway signs and banners in over 200 cities in 48 states on October 25th. I can only speculate how many people saw what we had to say, but I guarantee you it was well into the millions.
Congratulations, you are now a political force.
Freeway “Can You Feel A Draft” Day – Oct 25th

A Word on Strategy
Those of you who've put up signs know how fun it can be, as well as the suspense of seeing how long they stay up. Consider doing several small signs placed strategically on several freeways. Smaller signs generally stay up longer on overpasses, and are easier to make and post discreetly. They’re also a lot of fun. You'll see.
Newsgroup
To communicate with one another we have started an invitation only yahoo newsgroup, which I encourage you to join here:

Thanks again to all of you for standing up for your right to be heard. Full and unfettered freedom of political expression is what keeps democracy alive, but it only works if we use it. I hope you’ll continue to be part of the action.
