This is a documentary I found on YT that impressed the heck out of me....which really takes some doing; not because I'm overly critical, but because I am extremely sensitive to motive.  However, I'll turn down my BS sensor for now and stick my proboscis out a wee bit and say......This 26 minute documentary moved me, and it is a fine example of grassroots American effort.  I hope you like it as well, and don't miss the credits...it's halarious.   

 

Cheers
