Please read below re MSN proposal in Los Angeles And this is why it was a fruitful day (and hope it carries over to Tuesday). Today, I went to the SouthBay KC show in Torrance with a 3 page flyer about the upcoming meeting in L.A. city council chambers (among other information at the CFoDC table with my fellow board members), but ended up walking around the vendors, stopping and talking to the public that was around. Talked to ...wow...couldn't count. But all were astonished and appalled...thought the M S/N was all over..."geesh, didn't we kill it in Sacramento?," even those that were exhibitors. My voice is hoarse, my old legs are tired, but at some points, I had 4 or 5 people around me listening. And promising to go to the council meeting or faxing them. (At one point they suggested having them shot or the dogs licking them to death, but I convinced them that their DOGS VOTE! I hate being a "mouthpiece", out there, talking to PEOPLE! but DARN!
