Did you see the letter in the post today that suggest that your concern
is shared and the problem is not just local?<br>

"Lately everyone is in the business of fundraising. On a single
Saturday, I encountered people soliciting money for a school swim-team
at the front door, <i>firemen on the road</i>, soccer teams at the
entrance of a grocery store and hungry children at the grocery
checkout. I also get a letter from a neighbor involved with breast
cancer and a phone call from a political fundraiser. It feels like I am
in a poverty-stricken nation where many beg for few."<br>

<div>{snip}I really would like to see the firefighters, charities and
everyone else kept off the intersections on busy highways. It's
dangerous as hell and it unnerves drivers to have strangers come up to
their windows. And I really do think it sends a message that RP does
not want to send. {/snip}</div>
