I think these need to be sent to the media as well.
Mars is entirely inhabited by robots.
where can we get these printed?
fantastic idea...I'm curious though, has anyone here started send them in?

You can go to any office supply place like Staples or Office Depot, and buy packages of Avery blank 4x6 postcards on 8.5x11" stock, and run them through your printer, just like making labels or making your own business cards. You can put anything on them you want. The sheets are pre-perforated, you just tear on the dotted lines. Address them and stamp them.

For that matter, you should be able to buy blank postcards at the Post Office and feed them by hand through your printer, just like photo paper. The worst part of the whole idea is the postage, IMO.

More stimulus for the economy
I just bought some 120# cardstock and I'm going to print 4 to a page and then cut it. I can print a bunch of extras if anyone wants them. I have 150 sheets.

Here's what I made. It took about 10 minutes using google image search and borrowing some words from you gentlemen:
I put it together with Microsoft Word, so you can just print 4 to a page on some cardstock... super easy! If anyone wants a copy of the word doc so you can monkey with it or customize it, shoot me a PM. I'm trying to make this as easy as possible so more people will participate. If you live in Colorado Springs and want me to just make you some postcards, I can do that too. I'll make postcards until I run out of paper for anyone who wants them. If you want them addressed to a certain person, tell me. Otherwise, I'm just going to print a bunch with various names and addresses on them. I'm planning on mailing 100 postcards by the end of the week.

Writing your reps in hope that they will listen to you when their core beliefs are opposed to the 2nd, I wont waste my time.
But his, great idea,this is something I can get behind.
Did anyone post this idea on that other ar site, much more people nationally there and some would even get on board as well I bet.

That's very cool! But does anybody know if there's an "official size" regulation for postcards? At 4 per sheet, I wonder if they'd be too small. The Avery's are 4x6, I think.Here's what I made. It took about 10 minutes using google image search and borrowing some words from you gentlemen:
