The Media Isn't As Mean As Everyone Says They Are As Long As You Aren't Charlie Sheen.

We spent the day talking to the various forms of media here in Oregon. Everyone is so great. After the initial shock of how crazy the idea sounds wears off they all understand. What we are doing is not only important to the country, it is important to the area of Oregon we are from. When I lived in Portland all I would hear about Southern Oregon is how dumb, undereducated, and ignorant we were. Who's got the fore site now Portland? A.M.P.P. will become a point of pride for this area in the years to come.

The papers are getting their stories together. You will start seeing them pop up in the various papers in the next week. They are going to follow the development of our project to our day of departure. I think we might work out something that will let them follow us on the road. Vicarious journalism. Not quite as cool as Gonzo journalism, but way more truthful and happy in it's ending.
