Nation's Top Cyber Political Organization

You may recall that 80-20 was rated "one of the nation's two
top cyberspace political organizations in the 2000 election,"
in a book to be published by 3 Syracuse Univ. professors.
This book is now available! One of the authors, Prof. Steve Davis,
is former Washington/World and National News Editor of "USA Today."
To order, visit
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0813340055/qid%3D1025198992/ref%3D=sr%5F11%5F0%5F1/103-1079944-2047015

The book's title is "Click on Democracy: The Power of the Internet to
Change Political Apathy into Action." 80-20 is mentioned in p.25, 114,
156 and pp. 201 to 210. S. B. Woo was invited to write a Foreword for
the book, who used it to tell what motivated the formation of 80-20.
