like it would not. For a while, there is enormous focus while the media is there, and then nothing more until the next time, which is inevitable until some serious actions are taken. That won't happen without a whole lot of support and a continuation of the focus on what truly is a huge issue.

So I am very grateful to people, like you, who is able to articulate so well what the issues are. And I am happy to support your efforts as much as possible. This, eg, should have hundreds of recs on a Dem forum.

So here's another for those who havein't seen it yet.
