To: Alamo-Girl; doug from upland
THANKS TO YOU Alamo-Girl for your helpful inputs.

I'M NOT SURE that the project is going to get off the ground at all.

There seems to be lots of emotion about Shrillery. But it doesn't seem to translate at all yet into much even introductory, tentative commitment to the project. Two brave, kind souls have spoken up, so far, beyond Doug.

I really had assumed that there were masses of Shrillery stuff in your archives, AG. I even assumed that's where Doug was getting all his material. So it seemed simple enough to me for us to mine your stuff much as I thought Doug was already doing.

BTW, WHAT PERCENTAGE OF YOUR DOWNSIDE LEGACY implicates BOTH Dillbo and Skullery at the same time?

Anyway--thanks for your prayers and caring. Will see how far it goes. I'm not about to try and push the river or a wet noodle clear across the country on this one.

I believe strongly it's worth doing. Alas, I'm one person and we need a good sized team--at least a poten team to do this job remotely right.

LUB,

Thank you so much for your post and for all your enthusiasm!!!

I don't have a clue what the percentage of Hillary v Bill material would be on the Downside Legacy - but I did not focus the collection on Hillary. I suspect there would be more information here than there.

I've been involved in a number of projects on Free Republic - getting the DSL to the Senate and to the House by remaking the timelines to support the Cox/Dicks espionage report and the documentation of Chinagate.

Those projects were important but involved a ton of information and thus were of interest to a small group, i.e. we were preaching to the choir.

The greatest impact has been with the fewest words and with graphics - the "Sore Loserman" posters, the Freeping in DC, following the Clintons, the Washington Times ad.

That's why I said this kind of project needs a marketing guru, not a database gal, to be effective. It's all about "soundbites" these days - how to get the information to the busy people who aren't attentive and don't realize there is a problem.
