Guys, check out this comic:

I'm not affiliated with him at all (I don't even live in Kansas), but he seems like a guy with his head on straight who would be on our side if anything came up in legislation relating to poker. But more importantly he is using an interesting method for getting his word out, and it's worth a read.
