Up to 3,500 now and the petition is closing tomorrow, the 24th.
Better sign it now.
And end up with a flood of SPAM. All these on-line petitions and discussion groups where you have to provide your e-mail address is a perfect source for spammers to get a bunch of bulk e-mails and clutter your Inbox.

Hey... if you've been around the internet for more than a year, you're email address has already been nailed. But this is what they say on the 'signing page': Please note: All information you provide on this petition signing form will be public on the petition signatures page, except your email address, for which privacy is set here: Email Address Privacy Option: (choose one) Private Available to Petition Author Public Explanation of Email Address Privacy Options: - "Private" means your email address is stored in a secure private location, for signature validation only. - "Available to Petition Author" means your email address will not be available to the public, but will be available to the petition author, as well as being stored in a secure private location for signature validation. - "Public" means anyone viewing the signature pages on the Web for this petition can get your email address and send you email. If they have any honesty at all, they are giving you the option to your privacy. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
