The e mail idea sounds great. We should coordinate though: if just the four of us do it, it is not going to be very effective. And we should use this tool to its full effect: not just send an email, but in it express our thoughts about what is going on in Chiapas and in the "transformation" of the Mexican economy. In other words, not just "you're bad", but "you're bad because... and stop doing it or else you will get a lot more of this business disrupting business which will cost you etc. etc." The rifght wing in the U.S. has used letter writing for decades as a tool for political action. Not only We can clog their email box, but we should do it with messages bearing content. It may even make an impact on the readers.
And: why limit the campaign to the "economic" targets. The Mexican Government must have sites and email too, they need to know what's on our minds.
If anybody has the address of the Anonymous Digital Italians who started the campaign, please post it and let's contact them and others interested in making a difference in Chiapas.
