HELLO! Am I the only Scaper in the Polk County area of Florida? Have you seen a green Chrysler with it's rear windows covered in Farscape posters? That's me! Is anyone else here trying to get out the word?

WASSSUP I'm from the Tampa Area myself.

Hey have you seen the news here lately? Fox News can make coverage of Farscape tomorrow. But we need to call them and tell them about it. I already spoke with someone at Fox Productions and I was the only call about that but if you want details it is at the main page of this site with some numbers. So please give the local fox news network a call at 813-870-9700 and tell them to cover the Farscape Story.

Well I know my ex better being doing something there in Polk County. His mailing address is Lakeland but in fact he lives on a dirt road in the country, one side of which is Polk, the other side of which is Hillsborough. I ought to give you his phone number so you can call him and raise hell at him for not putting forth some effort! :D He and I are decent friends, so it would be no trouble if you're interested. Unfortunately I had to leave Tampa, well Edison which nobody's ever heard of, but close to Plant City which you have heard of, 3 years ago. What I would give to be back in Florida!!

Orlando here. Thats not too much of a stretch, considering at the Orlando Rally we had folx from Tampa, Ft. Meyers (woo hoo ajar!) and Free Pilot came up from West Palm. Florida Scapers Unite! I know there is a big south FL contingent, too.

So what should I do to find more places to meet up with folks or find the rallies? Is there a Florida mailing list?

THoughts and prayers go out to all those associated with the brave souls of the Columbia. Let's always remember them as we work towards helping our wayward astronaut.

Hi fellow Polk and FL Scapers. I Live in Polk and my husband and I have been driving around with posters in the back of our car since December...I was hoping doing all of that Christmas shopping would bring in some new viewers ( thats what I tell the hubby anyway and since he loves Farscape he buys it ;)

I haven't posted much but I have been writing,emailing,faxing and calling every chance I get to TPTB to keep my fav show on the air. Good to know there are others out there.

I always wanted to be an astronaut, what kid doesn't? Asthma kept me from ever getting to realize that dream and I know those died doing their dream and helping all mankind. My prayers to their families and friends.

Hello Zee! Glad to see I'm not alone here. Maybe if we can gather some more Polk Scapers, we can have some sort of gathering to get the attention of the News Chief or The Ledger. Let me know if oyu have anyone new to contribute!

Yup. Thats it. I saw you joined. Thanks. I have an ICQ group, too, its URL is in the Links forum. There might be a South FLorida group somewhere, I know there is quite a contingent. FreePilot is from down there. If you ever need a chat transcript, he is the guy.
