Hi I saw that you guys are coordinating some buses from New Jersey and I was hunting around for a way to get down there. How may I sign up for one of the seats, and how do I get there? Is there an e-mail I should send this request to? --Lifemarchny 23:17, 6 January 2011 (EST)
- You can email us at "conservapedia@zoho.com" for details. Thanks for your interest!--Andy Schlafly 23:27, 6 January 2011 (EST)

Footnotes and claims
This is an interesting article on a worthwhile subject. I tried to make it more clear by separating footnotes from other references.
However, the claim that the "influence of the March for Life is approximately 20 times its attendance, as the average person who attends communicates his participation to 20 others" seems to come from the same place where we find that "at this moment" is a nuance of ιδού: it's a pleasing invention which fits the narrative.

- So what's your reasoning to come up with the number 20, why not 10 or 30?
- Have you performed any survey which leads to the factual statement: the average person who attends communicates his participation to 20 others? Average person somewhat implies that there has been a sample taken...
- What's about the overlap? In you sample, have you asked for the number of people which whom the individual communicated? Don't you think that many of the participants of the march communicate with the same people, as they share a circle of friends?
- Or did you look up surveys of other demonstrations? I'd love to see a link, as this seems an interesting line of research.
