A huge thanks to Joe, and all, at "North Texans for 911 Truth" for creating and initiating the Plane Truth Project!!

I thought their idea was simplistically brilliant - remember KISS in high school (and I don't mean the band)?

So, duplicating their 9/11 truth action of May 11th, I am very excited to announce that a company has just been booked to fly an aerial 9/11 Truth banner across the Jersey Shore skies north from Cape May, the southern tip of New Jersey to Sandy Hook, NJ, on June 11, July 11 and August 11.

I am thinking, now, that I'll probably choose a different area for the banner to be flown on June 11th, since not too many people will be at the beach yet. I'm also looking into adding July 4th at the Jersey Shore, and possibly September 11th in NYC. (How cool would that be? V for Vendetta-esque.) There are new flight/zoning restrictions for NYC, but I was just told that they're still allowed to fly along the Manhattan River. Does anyone know if a banner could be seen from street level in Lower or mid Manhattan, in between buildings?

In conjunction with the Week of Truth project(s), I would like to propose this: "Summer of Truth, 2008"** to encompass the extra special events we are all involved in on the 11th of each month and also any Weeks of Truth planned for the summer - is there one planned for the week of July 4th?

The company I'm using is called "High Exposure Aerial Advertising" located in Woodbine, NJ, but they book flights for all over the country:

If enough people or groups book any banner-flying through them, they would probably lower everyone's rates.

** Remember Summer of Love, 1967?

From Wikipedia: The Summer of Love refers to the summer of 1967, when an unprecedented gathering of as many as 100,000 young people converged on the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood of San Francisco, creating a phenomenon of cultural and political rebellion. While hippies also gathered in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, and across Europe, San Francisco was the epicenter of the hippie revolution, a melting pot of music, psychedelic drugs, sexual freedom, creative expression, and politics. The Summer of Love became a defining moment of the 1960s, as the hippie counterculture movement came into public awareness.

My vision of Summer of Truth, 2008 might be a little different than this (but maybe not much), but its goal would be as described above, "a defining moment" when 9/11 truth would be seriously questioned in the mainstream public, and maybe even carry over into bigger truths and renewed discussions of the assassinations of JFK, RFK, MLK, Jr. (and Dr. William Pepper's work), Malcolm X, the circumstances surrounding Paul Wellstone's death and his family, and how it might all be connected to 9/11 . . .

Then maybe we can get our troops home ASAP, and find some truth, justice and accountability for the 9/11 victims, their families, and all the 9/11 Responders who have died, or are sick and dying, and all of their families.

Then, maybe we can get our country back on track. (Yes, I'm an idealist.)

Look up to the skies on the 11th this summer . . .
