To add to my original message, they said at the time that they had notified
something like 10,000 farmers -- was that the number? Does anyone remember
the actual number? If 10,000 is the right number, the jump from 1,685 to
8,064 means that nearly half rejected the proposal, which is a lot when you
consider how short the time frame was and how few people usually bother to
reply to mailings of any sort.
