My friend, Iris, in New York State sent me the below message. She is working
very hard with several animal welfare agencies and 60 minutes in hopes that
the documentary can be shown on regular television - so many people do not have
HBO!

Please pass this information on to as many lists/people as you can. And
write your elected representatives!

Thank you.
