Phone calls are a total waste of time, because the person answering the call can easily write down
nothing about the call, and the response to phone complaints is too often: "Well you're the only person who seems to have a problem with this." Calls to congressional offices are often met with ARGUMENTS by office aides!
Complaint phone calls,
if recorded on a written phone message pad at all, are often interpreted, summarized and minimized by the person taking the call.
A petition shows the names and numbers of people in favor of it. It can't be ignored as phone calls can. And the wording of the petition in print cannot be mischaracterized to those who make the decisions.
