I usually send these e-mail messages, but have often wondered about their effectiveness. Who reads them, in the offices to which they are sent? How are they registered by the staff? We are often encouraged to edit the subject line and the body of the message, adding something personal: Does that really matter?
Finally, has this sort of thing ever been at all effective, in changing the mind of someone in a position of authority?
It is pleasant to think that this message-in-a-bottle activism may actually accomplish something. But it hardly deserves to, seeing how easy it is.
Chickens deserve our true friendship! So do fish! So do other sentient beings! Let us learn to be kind.
