FWIW In the past some administrations allegedly have resorted to sorting 
pro/con letters into separate containers and weighing each on a scale. I 
don't know if the current administration does that but to give the maximum 
'weight' to your letter write your original comments on the heaviest weight 
paper you have or can find.
