You know something that works one heck of a lot better than Internet
petitions?

Writing a short note to your Representative and Senators asking them to back
life extension research.

Postal mail only.  Yes, a stamp isn't free, but it's cheap.
Yes, it's a bit less convenient - and that's the point: if it's convenient,
it convinces no one who matters.

Better if you hand write the letter, but if your handwriting is terrible,
printing it out and hand signing will suffice.  (So long as it's not a
letter you copied from someone else.) It only needs to be a paragraph or
two.



You know what burns up and wastes a lot of the passion that we could be
using to actually get stuff done?

Internet petitions.
