AUGGH!! I've been hoping/ wanting to see this, ever since I missed the first showing (out of town)--- and now, it conflicts with tomorrow's crucial meeting at church!! Any chance there will be an additional screening coming up? And/or, will it be available in any other way soon (e.g., online??) Thanks! Blessings, Linda K.

Re: Paper Tigers free screening
I understand, Linda - I can't attend either! I do know that the Paper Tigers website has listings for showings around the country and/or there is the option of "renting" the DVD for your own viewing (kind of expensive for just one person - I think its around $200). Hopefully others who do local screenings will post it on ACEs Connection and you'll be able to attend:-)
