This is great! A followup contact, either praise or criticism, is like Pavlovian conditioning for our representatives. I'm happy to say I was able to give positive reinforcement to my congressman. Forgive me if I'm mixing up my theories, I haven't taken a psychology class in several years.

Also, great job to Sina and the taskforce!

What you're talking about is operant conditioning ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operant_conditioning )

Thanks! And as always, anyone who wants to help create things like this can sign up at http://sina.is/task-force/

We particularly need some extra designers to help out, but the more the merrier.
