Bill,
I may be mistaken here, but I had trouble
reaching their website several weeks ago.
Can you share the particulars with us?
I am copying this message to the Supreme
Law School. Those clients may want to
contact you directly.
Many thanks!

>>> 1) build the online libraries as a resource to all those who would

>>>
>>> 2) hammer the media

>>> The MAP program is of limited use without the available resources to

>>>resources that people would come to as an organizing point. That includes:
>>>
>>>1) the rhetoric to make the arguments in the terms that non-believers can

>>>win the argument when it comes up.
>>>
>>>2) a statement of position that can be the focus for broad-spectrum
>>>support (The Hoover Resolution),
>>>
>>> Note: These first two items were important because they were what
>>>allowed us to achieve a complete dominance of the debate forums in the
>>>online world -- years before MAP came along.
>>>
>>>3) an online organization for activism (DRCNet),
>>>
>>>4) online resources so all your supporters everywhere can know the facts
>>>and make the best arguments, (http://www.druglibrary.org) and finally, --
>>>
>>>5) A media awareness project to bring those resources to the attention of
>>>the media.
>>>
>>>The MAP project you are looking at is really the tail end of several years
>>>of work that came before it -- laid out by yours truly.
>>>
>>>I would also point out that, while MAP gets a lot of letters to the editor
>>>published, the real grunt work of changing minds is done by downloads from
>>>the online library. A letter to the editor is really just an attention
>>>getter and they are so short that it is difficult to make a conclusive
>>>argument either way. To really seal the issue, you have to lead someone
>>>into the online library where the arguments are made completely and
>>>coherently. Most people can brush off a letter to the editor. The online
>>>library is the real killer. The online library, at last estimate, serves
>>>up at least half a million documents per month from my web site alone, and
>>>much of that is copied and distributed to others off the net in great
>>>quantities. I get logins from more than 1,000 colleges per month, for
>>>example.
>>>
>>>As far as what it would take to get me to do it for another project? Lots.
