Dear everyone,

Wow, our amazing people-powered community has just hit 15 million people -- the largest online political movement ever! Size matters, but spirit matters more, and ours is on fire.

We're winning more, and bigger -- just a few days ago, 2.8 million of us played a key role in getting Europe to stop ACTA, the global treaty that would have let corporations censor our Internet worldwide!

Every week, bit by bit, we're coming together from every nation of the world (click here to see a global map of our membership) to build the world we want. With ACTA and many other challenges, we bring the legitimacy of massive citizen petitions, matched with smart citizen lobbying/messages/phone calls and a media-savvy delivery of our voices directly to decision-makers. To celebrate our happy 15, here's 15 photos of our favourite petition deliveries!







From me and the whole team -- huge gratitude for every amazing person in this awesome community - happy 15 everybody!!

 A cannibal entered the meat market to buy something nice for dinner. The owner greeted him and told him to look around. The cannibal began to inspect the meat case and noticed the market specialized in brain.

Upon further inspection he noticed a marked disparity between the costs of brain meats. A carpenter's brain sells for $1.50 per pound. A plumber's brain sells for $2.25 per pound. He noticed with alarm that a politician's brain sells for $375.00 a pound. With not a little curiosity he asked the owner why the huge difference in price between the similar meats.

The owner responded with a deadpan look on his face, "Do you realize how many politicians it takes to get a pound of brains?"
