It will be ignored.  This is not exactly a well-known or influential group.

I actually agree with most of the ideas presented on the other parts of their 
Web site -- my political affiliation is Libertarian -- but they have clearly 
shot themselves in the foot on this one.  It's pretty clear that all of their 
"research" came from only one source:  there is only one other entity, 
anywhere in the world, that is saying the same things they will say in the 
upcoming report.  And they are repeating it almost word for word.

I hope that their stupidity does not damage the great Libertarian ideas that 
they are promoting elsewhere on their site.
