I've been thinking about this for a while, then Adam Baldwin mentioned it during the Q&A at the Dallas Sci-Fi Expo last Saturday. We're coming up on the 10 year anniversary of Firefly. Of course, it premiered on FOX September 20, 2002, but does anyone know the exact date that filming began for the pilot episode? If not, how can we find out that info?

I think that is a significant milestone to consider for fan activity. Or have we already passed that date?

And unfortunately, Joss Whedon's version of the future seems more likely at this juncture than Gene Roddenberry's.

I've been thinking on this a while now...

The things all of us could potentially have access to are; phone, TV, Radio, Mail, Internet.

I have no idea how much it would cost to put together a national commercial, but I would mail $$ for that...

I thought about community message boards (internets, and grocery stores) and gorrila arting them with something Firefly anniVERSEary and printable (words to the effect of ...and returning soon! would be nice, and hopefully true)..

I thought about Browncoats flash mobbing the most popular local theater near you- all at a certain time... wearing brown...

Big freaking banners...everywhere?

Everybody hitting the chat room at once?

Everybody gets together in Crisisall's backyard with a sheet of plywood a piece so he can tell us how to build a full scale model, and then we park it on the white house lawn?? That one's my favorite! Hehehe

C'mon, y'all have any ideas?

I think I'll make sure my Browncoats group does something in Sept. for the 10th airing anniversary, but I don't know about the filming date.

Yep, I agree- March is too soon... but I'm not feelin a whole lotta love on the September date either *sigh.

Ahhh, the modern age- soo hard to motivate people to do ANYTHING... good or bad.
Anybody like ANY ideas?? Is this thing on?? Do we care? Are we caring about this??

Here's one...How about everybody send a picture of themselves in their best swag, and send it to one of the techie people here who can put them together?? Montage 'O Browncoats??
