May I also suggest to everyone that a post card or letter is incredibly intimidating to pols. Every letter they receive means that the subject matter was so important to an someone that they would pick up a pen and influence others. Firing off an email or telephone call means to pols that it's a quick emotional response and they believe they can sidestep that. A postcard or letter carries far more weight! :)

You are right about the letter writing. I've e-mailed all too often and 2 weeks ago sent a bunch of hard copy letters; they do receive more attention.

Postcards are a great idea. I thought letters were not getting through since the anthrax siuation with the mail.

That is true.
I've never received a response from a telephone call or email, but I get a hand-signed letter on stationery when I rifle off a letter.
