The FREE multimedia CD on stolen election is DONE!
Come one, come all, get your free copy and start making more! Give copies to your friends, relatives, elected officials, the press! Be the media! Help get the facts out about the stolen election and how privatized electronic voting continues to threaten our democracy!

This CD has the essential videos and documents to show people it's not a wild conspiracy -- it's something we all need to be concerned about!

In addition to the "seedplanters" that are already signed up, I have funding to send out several more free copies. I would like to restrict sending free copies to those who agree to fire up their CD burners and make lots more copies. PM me your mailing address if you want to do it!

You can peek at the final version of the CD at the link below; note, the links to the videos and documents don't work on the website. You need the CD to get all the good stuff, but this URL will show you what is on the CD and what it looks like:

http://www.solarbus.org/election/cd/

(note, it's changed quite a bit since the last time I showed it to you)

Peaceout,
Gary

1. Gary, we'd appreciate a copy in the Orange State. I'll PM with address.
Thanks for your hard work. Were you able to use any footage from the 'Nash-ional" conference?

2. legal for bittorrent distribution?
That would provide some rather pervasive mass mirroring.

9. read the web page, it says
The videos and documents will not be available when you view the mirror online; they will be dead links. To get the videos and documents you'll need to get the (free) CD

14. Easier way to get it out
Edited on Thu Jul-28-05 10:41 PM by Tux
Make an ISO file. http://www.magiciso.com/

Have it so people can download it and burn the file as an image. Then they have the CD without snail mail. Put it on the site and allow others to download it as they demand. http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm

16. the problem with that is
bandwidth and storage.

my website is maxed out on storage, the ISO file would be 750MB... plus bandwidth would kill me... we're working on bit torrent whatever that is.

18. A bit-torrent would definitley help
I don't like giving out my snail mail address unless I really have to. So if there's a bit-torrent going to be available that would be nice.

19. Good for BitTorrent
Clear out junk on the server and make the ISO. As long as people use Bittorrent (and more of them), your bandwidth problem wouldn't be as bad over time.

17. Mazel tov and thank you, thank you, Garybeck
for doing all this important work. You're a gem.

D'ya think maybe we could get Jim March to distribute it inside the prison system? They way I see it, there should be some high ranking government officials there soon who'd be quite interested...

20. Hey thanks for all your work garybeck. I'll get one and share too.
It's late right now, the wee hours of the morning...so I'll wait until tomorrow as I am headed off to dream sweet dreams of Bush's impeachment.

Thanks for putting the CD together.

29. thanks, i think the website says we're out of that shirt, but
I think I have one or two left with small smudges on them that I can let go for $5. If you want one you can make a donation for $5 and write something in there about the tshirt. If you need me to check the size let me know by email or PM. It's either large or xlarge. i will be making more with a slightly different design but i can't say when they'll be done

peace on you

30. Great work, Gary. I gave out five copies today.
Two other Voter Confidence Committee members got copies, plus a third copy that one of them will be delivering to our County Clerk. I also sent a copy to my Mom in NY who said she'll have people over to watch the videos. The fifth went to an experienced organizer in SF who has hosted many house parties over the years.

How far and wide is this CD getting? Can we get a roll call from the people who received it straight from Gary?
