Is there anything besides calling our elected officials that we can do? Anyone else we should write to? Should we have an overall plan of attack? I know the modem line surcharge that was proposed a while back was hacked because of the coordinated outpouring of indignation. Let's do the same thing with this crap. Most of us think its a bad idea so let's stop saying it's a bad idea and do something about it. Ideas anyone?
