Okay, how many active US participants are there on 2+2, I'm sure it's more than 100 so why aren't more people doing this? It's so easy there is no excuse not to!

I for one am sick of the current situation and this super committee is a good way to get this bill/legislation passed, so any of you not doing this get off your asses and get to work!

I think the PPA has like 63,000+ people that like them on FB. If they could get 1% of their followers to do it...well it would be a better than what we have right now.

I started having PPA post these there last week. I had myself made an admin yesterday, so we'll get them all there now.

I like your location. I just noticed it after my boat was beaten by quads in my $3.30 PLO8 tourney. Your location made my tilt not hurt so bad.

I have a few people from other countries tweeting and FB posting for their US friends and followers to help.

Yesterday and I posted on FB asking my non poker playing friends to help us by following this action plan as well. The more voices we have the more likely we will be heard!

Changed my location as well, thanks for the idea!

Thank you. Changed it only a day or two ago.

Also, done. I'm going to bump the NVG thread sometime in the afternoon.

Not much new there to like right now. Hmmmmm. Will look again in 8 hours.

I'm also bumping the thread on NVG and the Zoo a couple times/day -- unless somebody else bumped it recently. Just don't want it falling off page one for too long.

And, I'll change my location for the cause, too.
