Downey Demonstration at 'Black & White' Premiere [April 4th, 2000]
by Laura

I went yesterday to the NY demo and it was wonderful, I got to meet Allyson Downey, she's wonderful. She told me that Robert told her to thank us all for all that we are doing for him. I was so excited. I got interviewed by ET and asked to give Robert a birthday wish, but I stuttered so I might not turn out on TV =(
Anyway, Allyson got interviewed and Moogy, Also Laura. We were interviewed by inside edition and ET and reporters from German TV (I think) also we got our picture taken by every single reporter that was there taking pics for the premiere. It was sooooooo exciting everything. I had made copies of Chris's information and the one from Jacqueline and we ran out of flyers, people were actualy coming to us and asking us for info there were no flyers in the floor at the end and that is a big deal. It means people were interested. =)
Colleen was there with her son, she traveled all the way from Virginia for the demo, she is wonderful.
It was great to be able to meet Colleen, Laura, Moogy, Dorit and Allyson!!
We even met a girl who said she wanted to join the list!! When I was standing there chanting REHAB NOT PRISON FOR ROBERT DOWNEY JR! or BEING SICK IS NOT A CRIME WHY IS DOWNEY DOING TIME! and many more, I began to think on how far we have gone. I started thinking back on the first time I saw RDJ in a movie, I was 11 (I'm now 25)
and I would have never imagined that I was going to be doing so much, also when I joined this list in 1997 I never imagined that it would grow so much and do so many wonderful things for Robert. I'm so excited...
Well, here I send you pics from the demo (I have a digital camera) Hope you like them (I will send the pictures tonight and 1 by 1 so they don't return it to me)

Love always
