Ian, I just checked and there's a post up from Andersonville Neighbors
for Peace at

 http://chicago.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=30695

it looks like it needs a little editing cleanup though.  A few missing
letters.  Chicago Filmmakers doesn't  have it listed up on their own
website yet--unless I'm just not finding it.

If you think 30695 is okay to link to--let me know and I'll clean in
up--add the attachment in a comment or whatever.

Seems fine to me.  They need to have this info online somewhere first, 
though.  I'll ask them to post it to the newswire.
