Hi ladies (and dudes) :

I wanted to share something with you gleaned from my stint in politics back
during the 2000 election cycle.  A state representative from Missouri once
told me that if he received 2-3 letters from constituents, it perked up his
political ears.  If he got 5 phone calls and/or letters, he would NOT vote
against that particular piece of legislation.  He felt those 5 calls and
letter represented the tip of the iceberg in terms of what his constituents
felt about a subject.

I'm sharing this because so often we think we have to mount a massive
campaign against a particular bit of legislation.  In California, yes, you
need more than Missouri.  But please, call those politicians, because it
really matters!
