I didn't want to derail the thread Save Schapelle Corby, so here's a new one.

Can anyone point to a case where a web- or email-petition had any effect on an outcome? It takes so little effort to add your name to a petition. I've always suspected that the targets of the petitions, if they see the results at all, simply dismiss them as inconsequential. So, are petitions worthwhile?
