I truly understand where you are coming from. I also truly understand the horrors
of what has happened to our environment. And, I have written my share of letters
to congress - only to get form letters and responses that had nothing to do
with what I was writing about in the first place. There comes a point when
many of us believe that you can not make an impact anymore. That is, unless
you can come up with a stong bloc. I have often wished that we could do that
here - en masse - make a difference. But it is very difficult to capture
that force in numbers - people sign on, people sign off, at any given moment
here - you may have a serious crowd or a lighthearted one.

They say the number one way to get someone's attention today is through a letter sent US Mail.

If there is even a slight possibility that thousands of letters arriving in Gore's office
might make him decide to run - who care's if our attempt may sound frivolous. At least,
from my perspective, it feels like there's more of a chance than doing nothing.
