Oh, I forgot to say, Good Luck!! It is admirable when someone is going to take on a multi-year project. There is no way I could last that long.

I would have to say there is no such thing as an unbiased documentary. All documentaries whether they are films or even news reports have an intent. Now it is possible not to know your intent and the message you are trying to get across when you first start filming and it will come to your as you compile your footage. But, a documentary that shows each side very evenly with no direct message is just plain boring and your chances of making your investment back will be slim.
Another thought that came across my mind is that it will be almost impossible to get cooperation from the witnesses. Sure some will talk but many won't in fear that if your docu does turn negative and the WTS knows about their participation they will be 86'd.

"Scary time to live in America..." exactly. The political polarization alone is nuts. Although, I suspect that there are alot more centrists and rational people out there but unfortunately the only people that have the media's ears are the extreme left and extreme right.

Back when I was a teenage JW, I used to get together with my friends and turn pop songs into Kingdom Melodies. The one that was most memorable was in the late 90's when that special yellow tract had to be distrubuted worldwide we turned TLC's "Red Light Special" into "Yellow Tract Special". Talk about a 180. Now I can't listed to "Red Light Special" without thinking of the old song.

It's called fair use.
I believe people are able to quote news stories without risk of prosecution as long as the source is properly credited and it's not for commericial use. Many political comercials quote news paper articles all the time and do not need to obtain permission to use it. So good luck turning the site in.

Holy Crap is right! $80 a month is your regular bill in your apartment?!?
I live in an apartment too and it's about $9/month off season and $24/month in the summer. I'll never complain again.

I couldn't edit my last post so here's another..
warning about blood products being found in food that you wouldnt suspect
That one haunted me for awhile even while I was out. Then, I went to France and ate some wonderful food that probably had blood products in it and loved every minute of it.
I remember my mom wouldn't even buy foreign chocolates because she was afraid they may contain blood. She felt that should would die in the big A even if she unknowingly did it. What a horrible god they worship. The ironic thing is that my mom always made chicken, and there are always blood clots and veins in chicken.

Special Campaign announced for September: Creation vs. Evolution
by sir82 inwe had a boe letter read recently.
the september 2006 awake will be 100% dedicated to the "creation vs. evolution" issue.. even the "young people ask" article will be something like "how can i defend my belief in creation in school?
also, i think one of the articles is entitled "does the bible support the notion that the earth was created in 6 24-hour days?".

Blondie is right regarding dubs trying to explain creation.
There are times I discuss the topic with my mother and throw in a few points that are part of evolution and she will totally agree with me. If you word it right, they don't know the difference.
