[Jamestown1630]

Yes, you've told me somewhat the same before. But I contend that to write a cogent letter, clearly delineating one's stance, is a lot more useful than being a faceless body in the street, about whom nobody knows or cares anything.

 "Go on then in doing with your pen what in other times was done with the sword: shew that reformation is more practicable by operating on the mind than on the body of man"

-Thomas Jefferson to Thomas Paine, 1792

But think about it. How many letters do you have to write to equal 5,000 people in the street.
