Does anyone know if this petition is actually going to be paid attention to by anyone with influence over the matter? I hate to sound negative about it, but a brief look at the website did not reveal any concrete plans to submit it to anyone.

In case anyone is wondering, yes, I did sign the petition, but I'd like some reassurance that it means something.

"To: The New York City Council, The New York City Fire Department"

Other 'tools' of presentation beyond the 'internet' would include 'Hard Copy'. I feel confident even though 3,000 miles away that FReepers will see that the petition is MORE than made aware of.

The New York Daily News has mentioned it. The Wall Street Journal has mentioned it. it has been apparently discussed by the New York City officials.

It is having an impact by its existance and continued growth.

I would love to see all petition signatures delivered to the City of New York and the Fire Department.

From my experience at Klamath Falls, I can tell you that 10,000 signatures fills about a 3" spiral bound book completely and there is cost involved in getting the names captured, printed and bound.

I believe at the 100,000 mark we should consider doing that and making plans to do so at 100,000 ... again at 250,000 and then at 500,000 and one million if it goes that far ... but it'll cost quite a bit and we'll need to get people to donate.

It is possible we will have the desired effect without doing so. They (FDNY and NYC) are already talking about it.

Each signature sends many messages.Truthful people want the truth.Lies,spin,revisionism,all manner of falsehoods take a beating from this petition.Not long ago any politician that stood against the revisionist lies would have automatically been pilloried.Now,more of our politicians and citizens are being made aware of the fact that truth is the only base upon which we can improve this Great Nation.Every person brought to see the truth on even one issue,begins realizing(some slowly,some quickly}how terribly we are hurt by perversion of the truth.This is the liars nightmare and the reason they want to see us forget about continuing the petition.This petition is opening too many eyes for the liars to stomach.
