Howabout donate them to PIRG - although I suspect they're a little too reformist for your tastes? (Even though you're not above using their stats.) The thing is that it will take a while for any effects to show. The leading Congressional Republican, Dennis Hastert, called it *Armageddon.* Rhetorical overkill? And he's a mild-mannered, placid guy.

Maybe the Supreme Court will declare it unconstitutional, however. Maybe that's why Bush signed it.
