I wave the clipboard above my head and spread my arm out, welcoming the crowd who surely will donate a moment to scribble on my paper for a good cuase. But no one comes forth. I let my arms fall to my side and take a shaky breath. Without meaning to, a tear falls down my cheek. "Please," I whisper to no one in particular, "Please sign."
