If you want to influence people to go see the film, you should hang out
with picket signs telling them *NOT* to go see it. Here is a website that
is doing all it can to stop people from seeing the film:

and a page there that attacks Michael Moore:

It is human nature to want to see something we are told we should not see.
This website, a creation of the right-winger Howard Kaloogian, has been on
Michael Moore's case for the past several weeks trying to stop movie
theaters from showing the film. Yesteday on AirAmerica's O'Franken Factor,
Kaloogian told Al Franken that liberals should *thank* him for generating
more publicity for the film and increasing attendance. Franken thanked him.

I say we should all get together and PROTEST the film all over C-U, if we
want more people to go see it (-:
