Flowers for Jack: If you can't beat him, send him pretty things

Sure, you many not like Jack Thompson - you quite possibly downright loathe him (many Joystiq comments have expressed such strong emotions) - but every Grinch has a beating heart, just waiting to be warmed. A group on LiveJournal, Flowers for Jack, wants to do just that.

With all the money they collect ($483.16 as of tonight), Flowers for Jack will send anti-game activist Jack Thompson the largest bushel of "pretty, pretty flowers" to him possible, along with this letter, signed by anyone who wishes to add their name. The letter, while not finished, will "touch (but not aggravate with)" the following:

• Some sort of apology for the less-cordial correspondences he gets from less mature gamers.
• Finding his proper stated agenda (keep violence from children, or ban games entirely?)
• The word Pixelante, and how its being used now.
• His overall stance on the NIMF (He badmouthed them soon after they sent him the C&D, but they still have similar agendas)
• Presidential candidancy in 2008: just a rumor?
• what we can do to maintain lines of serious dialogue with him?

Those who wish to be added to the letter can send their information (first name, last name, city, state, country, and so on) to flowersforjack@gmail.com. If you are willing to donate any money to the cause, as well, click on one of the "make a donation" links scattered about their main page. Their mission is to be both "civil and silly" - nothing wrong with that.

[Thanks, Brody Brooks and Andy]
