In fact, it's given me the idea of putting together some sort of presentation or even a film festival, perhaps one that might be taken on the road. What do my fellow vegans think about this ambitious venture? Anyone out there interested, esp. those in the SF Bay Area? I'd appreciate any feedback on this proposal. Ron in Oakland

Grassroots efforts DO make a difference and this issue is HUGE! (Also can sign to save the polar bears and all other animals in Alaska's National Wildlife Refuge!)
