Everyone it trying to take credit. Boat US, at another small group I
visit once in a while, a guy asked out loud if anyone had mentioned
them when passing around kudos On another note, Chuck G was on top
of this for a long time, that's where I was getting my info. Iirc, he
did an article on it a few weeks back that was published. I don't know
the circulation of the publication, but it only takes a vote or two to
get a vote passed in DC.. If he helped deliver a state or two, more
positive karma to him


Boat US deserves at least some credit, perhaps a great deal. They
provided an excellent web site which made it very easy to look up the
EMAIL addresses of your senators and congressmen, and format a letter
with all of the correct information to advocate passage.

It's possible to do all of that on your own but by making it easy, I'm
sure a lot more letters were generated.
