For those of you who have read the Grist Magazine article and found
it interesting, I'm passing along a request from Elaine Lissner, MCIP
director:

"Do you read Mother Jones, the New Yorker, GQ, or the New York Times
Magazine? MCIP is in contact with a writer who has written for these
publications and is going to try to talk them into doing a story on
RISUG. You can help:

1) Grab the e-mail address for letters to the editor (listed below).

2) Drop them a quick e-mail. Mention the following:

- that you're a reader
- that you saw an interesting article in a small online magazine
(www.gristmagazine.com/maindish/schulman081303.asp). It seems like
there might be more to the story, and you'd love it if they'd do a
piece that digs in a little deeper.
- that there was also a piece that briefly mentioned it in Men's
Health (www.malecontraceptives.org/articles/gifford_mens_health.html)

Here are the e-mail addresses:
Features editor at Mother Jones: Monica Bauerlein,
Bauerlein@...
For the New Yorker, send a message to themail@..., and
title it "Attn: Owen Kethery"
For the New York Times Magazine, magazine@...
For GQ, look for an e-mail address on the letters page or the page
after the table of contents

If they've already gotten a request or two for a story, the writer's
pitch will be much easier. You'll be making a big difference with a
five-minute effort!"

Thanks,
