The meeting date for the 2009 meeting hasn't been set yet. You need to watch BAT's website to wait for the announcement.

And you know these kids? Have you ever actually taken the time to sit down and have a real conversation with them and ask them why they do what they do. Try it.. you might be surprised. I know many of these "kids" and they are brilliant, creative people who in the nearly two years since that time have accomplished huge things. One even went on to be a statewide political director for one of the US presidential candidates this year. And I bet you will guess wrong as to the candidate was.

This event and the video were from April 28th, 2007. There is another video online from the event on April 30, 2008 (I wasn't at that event).

Great Idea, are you volunteering to organize that campaign?

Someone is there every year. It varies depending on who is interesting in attending. There are protests of some sort at all of the major Tobacco company's annual meetings in the US and UK. Some years the group is larger than others.
