Hey wre, while this seems like a worthy event to my thinking, you should provide more discussion when posting a copy pasted or persuasive piece that gets the community involved.
Basically, its a discussion board and we want folks to discuss the issues, not just promote events or stories, however well intentioned it might be.
Something like a discussion of some particular issue or a debate on an aspect of the case might be something you'd enjoy discussing that would make this thread more appropriate.
