At his recent book signing at Barnes and Noble at 82nd St. and Broadway, Al Gore was introduced to Citizens Of Contrary Knowledge by lead singer Chris Barczynski who spoke briefly with Mr. Gore, gave the President-elect of 2000 our CD ( telling him to inform Tipper that there are no "offensive" lyrics on the CD! ), and offered the services of the band to help him on his mission to spread the truth about global warming. Mr. Gore's movie and book, "An Inconvenient Truth", are a must see and read for all Americans irrespective of political affiliation. Visit

While attending ceremonies on Dec. 8th, 2005 at Strawberry Fields in Central Park honoring the 25th Anniversary of John Lennon's assassination, singer Chris Barczynski was asked to comment on what John Lennon meant to him and why he was there in single digit cold to be a part of the celebration. "I'm a huge fan of John Lennon...his music, but especially his message. I think it's something that needs to be revisited right now-especially now. We have never tried Peace!", said Chris.
