Only 120 letters so far? Ummm.....
WTF? I'm a little disappointed.
I agree. That is really friggin sad. It always seems like it's the minority trying to do the work for the majority. People need to step up and stop simply throwing money at the problem thinking it's going to get better.
Nicole created a letter and many of the women attending last week's SAS meeting signed it.
Nicole and Don Kusser hit up many of us at the Braintree R&P meeting last Monday to sign the letter that Nicole created as well.
I doubt that they've been forwarded to GOAL yet, but it should be a reasonable sized stack of letters.
Kudos to Nicole and Don for making this happen.
honest question, can I write one letter, print out multiple copies and have others sign it? Would that be ok?
Why doesn't GOAL do what "the opposition" does, which is to put up a form letter online, where you can fill it out and put in your name? They could also provide a .pdf document people can print, add to (some blank lines), and sign and send in. This could all be automated, and take advantage of available technology.

It is MORE effective if each letter is in your own words. Form letters are just a waste of time. What do you do when you get a form letter? Probably don't pay much attention to it.
Bumpitty bump. Please keep the letters coming!
