:-) @ Clinton.

Here's another bucket of water: Please note

The original message came to me from a person who is a very active adult in Girl Scouts; she a highly respected member on all kinds of their committees, boards, goes to national meetings, etc.

I assure you this is NOT a hoax and that the request for emails comes from her and other concerned Girl Scout leaders, parents, members, executives, etc. who want to show their support.

Even if the opposition did receive 10,000 responses, wouldn't it be nice for the GS to hear from their supporters?

I know hoaxes, believe me, please. I do not send them out, not even the long-time one on women in Afghanistan, anymore, and those of you who know me, know that THAT issue is very important to me.

I don't buy the argument to not send an email just because of other hoaxes. If you don't want to send an email, pick up the phone and call your local GS office or the national one, or send a letter by snail-mail, please.

I am sorry to get on the soapbox, but some of this logic I am hearing seems to be saying "do nothing" as it is pointless otherwise.

kat, stepping down off the box, now
