Actually I think the populace has spoken quite clearly.  It does not 
care. This is not an issue that justifies an e-mail response to Laurel 
let alone a stamp and mail. In all reality this is an issue that only 
matters to a VERY few. I think campaigning has already drummed up more 
responses than would have been made by choice! The polling very 
accurately reflects the feelings of the crowd.  This is a lot like the 
Anderson for president campaign; A neat idea but who cares and what 
difference will it make to more than a dozen people.
