good luck and you just never know who might get lucky to receive your info. i would have loved to have been the recipient of your meetup info/cards --- anything at all, and i really thought it was the truth! i so wanted to stop and chat with the apostates but the stupid elders (actually, i don't know who they were) were standing all around watching back in the dark ages.
have a great time and much success.
At the very worst, it sounds like you'll have a good time!
I was actually wondering what an attention-grabbing without alarm-setting-off 'tract' would be during our DC...
maybe something like....
"Two groups of anointed overlapping generations... I don't think so! - jwfacts.com"
Here's something small enough that you can cutout and put in you billfold, purse, etc. The Tinyurl link is to the complete essay on the topic. This link is to a single page of the pocket size edition that you can print and snip into 6 copies, handy enough for handouts, below windshield wipers, laundromats (tape to copies of WT and Awake!) etc.

Hi serenitynow!, I like your idea! How about a selection of business card-size tracts with emotionally grabbing ideas?
Can't sleep at night? Chat with JWs at www.jehovahs-witness.net
Do you always feel that you aren't doing enough? Let Steve Hassan, M.ED., NCC (www.freedomofmind.com) help you.
Do you have spiritual doubts? Get the facts at www.jwfacts.com .
Another possibly cheaper idea is to send anoynomous emails to family and friends like I wrote about in http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/211893/1/Youe28099ve-Got-Mail-TM. I sent the following email to about 50 JWs:
Subject: How Are You Feeling?
Lonely and depressed — how do you cope? How do others successfully overcome loneliness and depression, and start to feel better? Check out the following websites to chat anonymously with other active and inactive JWs, or read relevant and interesting articles:

AbibleStudent, thank you for those suggestions! I never even thought to do anything like that, appealing to emotions as opposed to just blatantly putting antiJW stuff on the card. Very good ideas!
You are welcome serenitynow! Good-luck!! I hope that it works, and I would also send anonoymous emails to JWs because they are cheaper and you may be able to reach more JWs.
Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

"Jerusalem was destroyed in 587 BC." And maybe include an email address to some respected archaeological website to back up the date.
Keep it short and simple.
Draw parallels tp Harold Camping. God's tool, Invisible fulfillments after failure etc.
If Camping is a nutter or a false prophet how is the Watchtower different?
AJWRB and Silent Lambs have some.
All the best with your campaign serenitynow!
I totally agree with ABibleStudent's suggestion of simply offering help and support.
We have no way of knowing how many JWs are out there who have doubts or have actually woken up to the truth about the truth. Some of these could be desperate to find a way out, but don't know how to fade and are terrified of losing their families. Maybe your campaign will reach some of them.
Good luck and let us know how you get on
