Bob, let me ask the following question: Has your PR firm given you any
indication of how to do an "event" that will get this issue public attention
and "cut through the chatter"?

I repeat, an ad campaign will get completely lost is the noise of all the
other ads (commercial and political) at this time of year.

It's easy (and wasteful) to spend money on ads.  It's hard to come up with a
guerilla campaign that will be successful.



Bob, this movement must last past this election.  Blowing your wad now will
accomplish nothing.
