One of the most successful campaigns I've ever seen or participated in
was when fans of the show Roswell sent bottles of Tobasco sauce to
Paramount to save the show. Which they did. Sending something like that,
which the company can't easily discard or dismiss, makes a very loud
statement, and it also gets a lot of media attention. The bottles of
Tobasco was donated to a battered women's shelter by Paramount, and the
show was saved.
So, let's all send Apple some apples. *smile*
Seriously, I think snail mail is far more effective than e-mail, but it
is also a lot more difficult to get people to participate, in this day
of electronic isntantaneous communication.

The question is, would snail mailing steve jobs do any good? I'm
assuming he doesn't read every piece of mail sent to him. I'm assuming
he has screeners and that kind of thing. So I kind of feel like its
just as likely my letter will fall in a black hole when writing steve
jobs as well. I think probably snail mail would be better than email
in this instance, but I'm just not sure how much. Maybe if a lot of
people did it.

I would say NO don't email there for one reason. I bet most anyone
who reads it would already agree with you. Why preach to the choir.
Send a snail mail to apple, addressed to Steve Jobs.
