Dear Ms. Dolari,

Many thanks for your recent letter. I appreciate your thoughtfulness in being willing to share your experiences with me.

It is always helpful to receive input from constituents. That your comments are based on your personal experience makes
them all the more helpful to me as I have opportunities to act on related matters in the Congress.

For more information on my work in Congress, please visit the 21st District's Web site, http://lamarsmith.house.gov



Sincerely,

Lamar Smith
Member of Congress

Obviously a vaguely replied form letter. Think it was even read? :)

Better than I got, the last time I wrote a Senator I got an email calling me a "concerned mother"...My name is ANDREW. I have a PENIS. Needless to say I'm voting against the douchebag the next time he's up.

They all talk that way on the Hill... I participated in a demonstration of the then-new HDTV standard for the House Telecommunications subcommittee 6 or 7 years ago. Dealing with the congressional staffers was frustrating at best because they are incapable of giving clear answers - even on something as trivial as "where do I set up the TV?"
