agreed. i just sent the website link in the subject and the body.. i doubt any of those sites even look at all the mail.. but its worth the try

Just a +1 to emphasise the importance of this -- this cannot appear to be just a gun-nut movement. "Normal" people have to be a part of this. It's unfortunate that we, as gun owners, are marginalized, but that's how it is, and we have to deal with it. That's why if you're on other forums (camping, fishing, caving, boating, offroading, landscaping...whatever), you need to get them on the bandwagon as well.

Just an update on how things are going:

We've served out over 7 gigs of bandwidth on the Send-a-Brick site, the site is about 95% of the results of the first two pages of a Google search, and is the first 5 results you get, and we've set up a system so that you can simply send in money to cover the cost of a brick+shipping, and we do the work for you in your name. Get ready for this...

We have 1000 bricks, and more than 200 orders in the first 8 hours.

*edit* - we had 200 orders, we've got 1000 bricks. my source was kinda confusing on that one. i've edited the post to be correct.

That, my friends, is incredible.

We're also getting an increasing amount of media coverage from more and more increasingly big names and had several radio interviews.

I've got 8 bricks at home that are ready to ship out. I sincerly hope you all do your part.

Thanks,
mr0w1

Flat rate boxes at the post office are just $8.10 to sent anywhere in the USA regardless of weight so thats a good option. But if you can fit one into a flat rate envelope then its just $3.85. I am definetely sending a brick!

You can fit a brick in the $4.10 flatrate box perfectly, and there's no chance of it poking through like in the envelope.
