Have you considered writing a letter?

I found these 2 links:
Requesting the Extraordinary Form of the Holy Mass: Three Sample Letters

Suggestions and sample letter for requesting the traditional Latin Mass following the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum

from Fr. Zuhlsdorf's blog:

I might if I had a printer (my handwriting is pretty awful!)

And if I didn't feel intimidated by the fact that my parish completed its "renovation" of the lower church just a week or two before the motu proprio (which was rumored for a good two years before its issuance) came out -- they got rid of the old altar, the communion rail and the pews, attempting to salve the more traditional among us by keeping the old altar stone and getting a few traditional-looking windows from two churches that had been closed. Also, the new wainscoting was made of the wood from the old pews. As the Dems say, the timing of this is suspicious.

I feel like I got a "No!" (more than that -- a smackdown) before I even asked, a slap in the face.
