PS: If you are interested in receiving videotapes and audiotapes of
progressive events such as these on a regular basis, please read on:
How to Subscribe to the VIDEOTAPE Series:
If you are not a subscriber to the video series, please consider subscribing.
As a subscriber, you receive 10 of our best 8-hour compilation tapes a year,
more if you wish, as soon as they are ready. Your only obligation is to send
$5 or more after you receive each one, and to tell me if you wish to
discontinue. Subscribing is easy. Just tell me you would like to subscribe to
the video series.
How to subscribe to the AUDIOTAPE Series:
We recently started an audiotape series called the Change-For-A-Buck
Audiotape Series. Subscribers will receive 90 minute audiotapes of some of
the best events we tape, and are asked to remit a donation of $1 or more
after each one. Lectures for the audiotape series will be selected from those
in the video series and will not include many events in the video series.
Please note that they will be sent only about 4 times a year, depending upon
whether we have extra time between videotape mailings (only about one tenth
of the events in the video series over all), and will probably only include
events also included in the video series. To subscribe, just tell me that you
would like to receive the audiotape series. Be sure to tell me if you decide
to cancel.
Please be sure to send $1 or more promptly for each audiotape. Please do not
prepay since we will be using the minimum and supplemental donations to help
cover the costs of each mailing, and want to be able to count on them being
there in the future. Also, we cannot guarantee that we will have the time to
keep the audiotape series going if interest in the videos keeps growing the
way it has been.
Regarding Both Series:
Information about videotapes in the Democracy University Video Series will be
included with each audiotape sent to subscribers to the Change-For-A-Buck
Audiotape Series. Subscriptions save us a lot of time, which allows us to get
more tapes out and keep the required minimum donation down. Please consider
subscribing to the $1 audio series or the $5 video series, or both!
If you have any questions, please email us, or call us at (213) 747-6345.
Thanks again!
Note: If you are a public access programmer that can only use SP, please call
me.
