<DIV>Dr Dierker and all,</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; You can download the forms at legalzoom.com, the total cost is</DIV>
<DIV>as I stated it before of course not including filing fees which in</DIV>
<DIV>Delaware are very reasonable.&nbsp; so no, I am not wrong look for</DIV>
<DIV>yourself.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; I didn't and am not aksing YOU to fund anything, I DID ask you if you </DIV>
<DIV>could or would START the legal filings.&nbsp; I can only guess from </DIV>
<DIV>your response below, you will not do so pro bono.&nbsp; That's unfortunate</DIV>
<DIV>and demonstrates a decided lack of commitment.&nbsp; </DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; INEGroup has enough to do to fund itself, let along fund any new</DIV>
<DIV>organization of any kind.&nbsp; Our lobbying costs alone for fiscal year</DIV>
<DIV>2006 were $8.2m, which from my personal perspective were</DIV>
<DIV>too little to make a significant enough difference and were largely</DIV>
<DIV>a waste of money.&nbsp; </DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; Agreed we can develope membership, but not from this mailing list</DIV>
<DIV>forum alone, as that has been tried before and failed.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; The "If you build they will come" catch frase is nice but wholly unrealistic.</DIV>
<DIV>It takes HARD work, dedication, a good and sustainable funding </DIV>
<DIV>stream that is long term reliable as well as a good outreach marketing</DIV>
<DIV>plan that can develope over time but must be initially effective.&nbsp; </DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp; So from your comments, it is clear you have never really built an organization</DIV>
<DIV>of any significance.&nbsp; I have.</DIV>

<DIV>You are wrong. Challenges to me by one person on this list do not mean anything.</DIV>
<DIV>Get any three currently on this list to agree with you about your plan or one like it and I will make a move. To do it well, what you suggest will cost in costs about $1400 assuming we can register a name and likewise the same name as a 501 (c) 3.</DIV>
<DIV>And no I am not funding it. But if the members of your group were each to contribute a couple of dollars each we would be good to go.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>We do not need that however. We can develop the petition and obtain membership right here.</DIV>
<DIV>The phrase "if you build it they will come" was not referring to the fans building the stadium and the players coming but the other way around. Field of dreams made a play on the words and reversed it. I am not looking for Postal to come out of a field and fix this mess.</DIV>

It takes HARD work, dedication, a good and sustainable funding stream that is long term reliable as well as a good outreach marketing plan that can develope over time but must be initially effective.&nbsp; &nbsp; So from your comments, it is clear you have never really built an organization of any significance.&nbsp; I have. <BR><BR><BR>

<DIV>Get any three currently on this list to agree with you about your plan or one like it and I will make a move. To do it well, what you suggest will cost in costs about $1400 assuming we can register a name and likewise the same name as a 501 (c) 3.</DIV>
<DIV>And no I am not funding it. But if the members of your group were each to contribute a couple of dollars each we would be good to go.</DIV>
