Totally agree. I'm thinking outside the square on this one and tapping into my 
other networks. As an example, I forwarded one of the pages from the site to 
the VIEW Club office who forwarded to the National Executive. This is part of 
The Smith Family, which has real cred with politicians. This effort must be 
wider than IT and privacy, so involving other interests such as women, 
disadvantaged children and education should put some umph under it. I also let 
Pia know that I've done this.

So look beyond the IT and privacy email lists to other areas where you are 
involved. If enough of the country is aware, this might be enough pressure to 
see it through.

Thanks for stating the importance of this, Roger.
