attempts to maintain democracy in Russia.

Jerry, your initiative and suggestion is great. But it is
still much more important and the impact will be much more
impressive if private persons will sign a letter in support
of democracy in Russia, and for Kasparov in particular, en mass.

Perhaps you, Larry and Taylor can collaborate on the text,
making sure that not only English but also the concepts shine
in its utmost fundamental simplicity. (I may try to find about
the technical aspect of such letters; I ran into this in the past;
or perhaps the three of you may do it all by yourself).

Best regards,
