The commenting process for federal regulations has always fascinated me. Americans across the country sit down every day and respond to proposed regulations even if those regulations have no impact on them whatsoever. They often drown out the nonprofits and advocacy groups who work tirelessly to advance their cause on that issue. The government is required to respond to those comments, not individually, but woe be the team that has to read through them all. I have not looked, but I would venture to guess less than 10% of the comments come from Alaskans.
