well i guess joe public didn't/doesn't kno about it.

what's needed, i think, is for some big name popularist genre 'stars' to get involved & speak out publicly about it.

having 'big names' from the folk & fringe isn't so good cos general public have never heard of them- like watersons/carthy, billy bragg etc.

if someone like SIR Paul or Ringo, sir cilla black,or mick jaeger etc or some other popular idol were to proclaim on behalf of 'the cause' the impact & publicity might be greater.
