Both good points, I feel... except (aside from the fact that I don't eat McDonald's) trashy food wrappers in the gutter (like the Taco John's remains I picked up two days ago) turn me completely off of the place, not craving it! I imagine it might be worthwhile to get 3M Post-It-Notes-style sticky pads with your message on them. FedEx and others use that for missed delivery messages, and they stay pretty well stuck. One more caution... I have No Solicitor signs on my doors, as well as further notes to not leave ur crap (stated a little more delicately, though firmly!) I have gone door-knocking for a political candidate and been gotten very mad at by a person with a No Solicitors sign. Ever since then I have taken that to mean not to intrude for any reason unless I'm a friend or have a tuning appointment.
