ATTENTION LETTER WRITERS - SNAIL-MAIL WINS
Decision makers know that the commitment of
the writer is reflected by the effort made, and when a letter
is published it carries a far larger importance to an official
than one mailed to him, and that letter is 10 to 100, maybe
a thousand times more effective than providing an email to
decision makers who will flush it down their hardrive. Editors
of papers email is fine.
