Number one are Steve Malzberg and Curtis Sliwa who plugged tghe rally incessantly since I spoke to them last Tuesday. You couldn't buy that kind of publicity and I am sure they will help the next time as well. What is more interesting is that the rest of the WABC crew carried the ball as well. I am sure that many who xcame to the rally was because of the plugs on WABC.
The guys at the firehouses in New York who started a cascading fax of the flyer I gave them. I suspect they blanketed the entire city by faxing to every batallion and firehouse. A lot of firetrucks went out of their way to pass by our rally and honk their horns. Next time I will contact them earlier.
The organizing for this rally was a learning experience and we did a lot of things differently from past rallies. Wee will continue to hone and refine the way we do things. The next time tghings will even be better.
I will be posting pictures of the rally as soon as I get them out of my camera.
