> I am glad to see there are others out there that feel the same way. What we are doing first is the poll with our site. You should encourage all those who support you to take part in it. It's findings will not be held private, but told to all. We will not release any names or personal info, it is for future contact purposes only. We will have a counter on the page to let people know how many have showed support. We will be ready to release the URL in the next couple weeks.
