The counterpropaganda is in _High Times_-- I hope you either subscribe
(preferred) or buy a copy every month. Other noteworthy mentions might include
the summer issue of _Daedelus_ (mentioned on the net twice), a copy of _Sassy_
magazine from this summer (thank you Doctor1), or the _Pittsburgh Press_ series 
on  civil forfeiture, to name only a couple off the top of my head.

The _Wall Street Journal_ and McPaper (_USA Today) have been running some
pretty decent reportage pointing out various Wo(s)D follies and atrocities.

Several anti-Wo(s)D activist groups have tried to get legalization messages
into the press and on the air-- just because you haven't seen any doesn't mean
that no one is trying.  

Dozens (maybe hundreds?) of activists ran for office this year on a
Legalization platform.

In Chicago, today's _Sun Times_ has a pretty decent feature story about the
Wo(s)D, mentioning legalization several times and stressing the tax revenues
that legaliztion could bring.

It sounds like something in particular is bothering you. One atrocity too many,
perhaps?? Just remember that the Reagan/Bush/Quayle era is over. We've got make
sure we're focussing our attention to the new leadership, not the previous
collection of clowns and bullies. In other words: the times they are a
changin'.

BTW (*RUMOR*) I heard that Clinton's choice for Surgeon General was on record
as favoring Medical Marijuana.

Here's some real world action: join your local advocacy group. Subscribe to
_High Times_. Write letters. Call and become an annoyance to the reporters in
your area.  Start your own advocacy group. Lobby your politicians.  Set up a
table at your town's summer fair. PLANT YOUR SEEDS!!! Wear a symbol of the
movement all the time.  Propagandize everyone you meet.  Never let a Wo(s)D lie
go unchallenged. Convince your doper friends to come out of the closet! Deface
your paper currency... 

Get acquainted with the movement leadership-- they're uniformly desparate for
money and help. 

Buy some hemp paper from TreefreeEcopaper.

Make sure to become super involved in '93: If at all possible, make sure to
show up at the Hemp rallies this year-- let's try to get every pot smoker in
the country to show up to at least one rally in '93.
