We can surely do that, though when we're passing out flyers, we give away
150 within the first hour or so.   Since we haven't long to talk with each
driver, it's hard for us or them to be selective about what they take.

So... we could try to hand out the SOA Watch paper this way, but we
could also, maybe better, offer it at (a) the Central IL Social Forum --
that would reach a *lot* of likely-interested people -- and (b) at
Farmer's Market.  May 2nd is the date for all three events (first Market,
next monthly AWARE demo, *and* the Social Forum).

So... What do you think of Social Forum / Farmer's Market distribution?
In any case, I'd say Yes, please do get them!  I'd happily cover some of the cost, too.
