Hey all:
Just wanted to make you all aware of an online petition that was recently started in support of accessible currency. This petition will be sent to the U.S. Congress and is intended to show support for creating currency that can be identified by everyone. The petition was just launched on Friday and at this writing on Monday morning, it has over 1800 names. I feel very strongly about this issue and so I would personally really appreciate it if as many of you as possible would add your signatures. The link to the online petition is:

Please note the number 4 in this url.
Thanks in advance for your support of this issue and for signing this petition.

I've already signed this myself. The petition is very well written. It's also interesting to go back and look at prior signatures, and see which names I recognize. this does not follow party lines. I've seen many NFB member names on here. I've also seen a lot or sighted folks signing this in support of blind people they know, so please pass it on to sighted friends and family, too!

I personally think its a waste of money and unnecessary, but each to his own opinion. That's what makes this a great country.

Heh signee is cool, too. Signatory is just correct. and as a communication major, I'm kinda concerned with correct word usage. sometimes.

Hmmmm, wouldn't a "signee" be one who is signed? "Signatory" is correct. Who really pays attention to these 'e-petitions'?
