Catchin' Up With... Scarlet P, the
"Like a kind of Johnny Propagandaseed I've been leaving niggling little reminders for motorists along the peripheries of the Interstates reading: "The War is a Lie... and you know it.", "Osama Bin Forgotten" and "Your Message Here". My placement strategy is simple: make the signs easy to see and difficult to reach. Using this tactic I've had highly visible signs stay up for weeks, getting the message out to literally hundreds of thousands of people, all for about ten cents worth of cardboard, housepaint and duct tape.

I firmly believe that even if just a handful of others started to adopt these strategies and tactics, we could witness the birth of an entirely new mass-medium: the People's Outdoor Advertising Network! (possible slogan, "This Message Not Paid For By Anyone.") As more and more of the information in this society falls under the control of fewer and fewer interests, it becomes crucial that we stand up for individual free speech any way we can... particularly in these months leading up to November. Do what you can to spread the word."... Peace, Scarlet P.
