Quote - Why Online Petitions Don't Work

You'd be better off emailing individual emails to eFrontier. It's much harder to ignore 500 individual mails than it is one petition which may or may not get there anyway and has probably been signed by a host of fictional characters, thus making it easy to discredit.

Exactly. I told that to some people on another forum I post on.  1000 letters in a bag on the floor vs 1000 lines showing up in a virtual email box are completely different. And the point about spoofing the names is exactly true. They have no way of knowing if it's 1000 different people typing their name or 1 person typing 1000 names.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
