[advocacy-discuss] Advocacy : SuperBowl half-time

[Renaud Manus]

Sun Microsystems was (is still?) already sponsoring F1
but I think it went almost unnoticed.

And Superbowl Ads are not watched by 1 billion people.
The ads are usually replaced by local ads or more
comments on the game in other countries.
