What's funny is the 7,000 letters presented to the bishops. A couple of weeks ago CORPUS (CTA) and FutureChurch sent these letters out to their constituents and encouraged them to circulate, sign and return them in time to present all these (they wanted a million or something) letters to the bishops while they were at the meeting. FutureChurch sent out 3,650 and CORPUS (CTA) sent out 3,000. That means, assuming all their respective members signed, only about 350 additional people bothered with it. The laity might say they wouldn't mind married priests, but really, they can't rouse themselves out of their torpor and act on it. In other words, they really don't care that much.
