I hope you won't mind me posting the following extract from your PM reply to me .... ".... we have .. found that congressmen tend to ignore people who contact them with emails unless they represent a significant group" ... because I would be interested to read what anyone else may have to say, or what opinion they may have, regarding this topic. With regard to "significant group" I'd like to refer to the significant influence the Civil Rights movement had in the USA a few decades ago. Over a quarter of a million people got together and marched, peacefully, on Washington and made their voices heard in no uncertain manner. They also made their voices heard on numerous other occasions through several up-front representatives. Of course, their cause was far removed from SEC Regulation, etc.. etc.., BUT it does show, IMO, what can be achieved if sufficient numbers of people get together for a common cause and act in a responsible but powerful manner. When sufficient numbers "take to the streets" or "make their voices heard", through highly influential means, they can come close to being an irresistible force, and any politician in office is not likely to ignore such an onslaught.
