Re: FIRST and National Media

Rich et al-

Great idea, and great discussion. Taking this to the next step, people can also write to ABC Entertainment (ABC, Inc. 500 S. Buena Vista Street, Burbank, CA 91521-4551, Phone number: (818) 460-7477) and let them know of your interest in getting the the FIRST Movie completed and on the air. If you really want to make an impression on them, come up with a really great idea for a FIRST story and contact one of the news magazine shows yourself to tell them about the idea (e.g. "20/20" or "Primetime Thursday" - 147 Columbus Ave., 10th Floor, New York, NY 10023 or "Nightline" - 1717 DeSales St. NW, Washington, DC 20036).

And then once they film the story and get ready to broadcast it, let us all know! When it is broadcast, invite the entire team over, stock up on Diet Cokes and Krispy Kremes, cook up ten batches of popcorn, and let everyone watch it on big screen TV together. You can even tape it and save it for your own personal use (and certain educational and research uses that staisfy the criteia for permitted exceptions) - just don't distribute it or re-broadcast it.

p.s. For anyone that is confused about how we got here, this thread and this post kicked off this whole thing. It started out as a great discussion, but took a right turn in the middle somewhere...
