News Birthday reminder service poses as transportation group, nation baffled
Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Wed, Oct 3, 2007 at 12:10 AM
So you've got a boxful of Breeze Cards that you want to send to your local elected official on their birthday. One problem -- you don't know when it is. Your problems, my friend, are solved.
The transportation advocacy group Georgians for Better Transportation -- where "better" really means "more" and "transportation" really means "roads" -- is your one-stop resource to find out the exact day those public servants came into this world! They even have a search function. Endear yourself to the people whose salaries your taxes pay -- send them a card.
Happy birthdays, Reps. Porter, Johnson and Heckstall! All the best to you and yours!

This is actually a service offered by Capitol Impact -- not a database maintained by this group.

But to even offer it on their Web site is just a little quirky to me. For an interesting take on the group, read this CL piece by former staff writer Michael Wall. http://atlanta.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A21411 And this CL piece by Doug Monroe... http://atlanta.creativeloafing.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A20401
