    We are getting geared up for the 6th St Smokeout, and it's now less than 3 weeks away!

    We'll have plenty of pizza, from the Mellow Mushroom, to take care of your munchies, and we'll also have a psychedellic multimedia light show for your viewing pleasure!!

    If you don't yet have tix, you can get them here:
    http://texasnorml.org/?page_id=408

    Also, if you have just a couple minutes to spare, go by Do512 and vote "I Like" on the event page there; it'll keep the Smokeout near the top of the list of events for that day, and the "Higher" we are on the list the better!!!!
    The Do512 event page is here:

    Thanks for your support!!
