Mike,

Please send me a copy of the petition.  For some reason, I have not been
able to get it from the website (which I have deleted, at any rate).  I
would like to circulate the petition and send it in this week.  

Thanks,

Mary Kindrick

No; online petitions are meaningless in this context since signatures cannot
be verified. Hence our insistance on written signatures.
