Ha, this kind of goes along with my over-long comment above. I really wonder how this works out for them because I see three or four of the SAME PEOPLE from the SAME ORGANIZATIONS over and over... I would assume in places like Davis and Porter, you have mostly the same people walking by all the time, not a high turnover of new faces/new potential customers (customers? donators?) like you would in a touristy area or something.
So what kind of return are they getting? Do they snag a new person or two every day who hasn't seen them before? Do they just finally wear people down, and when they see MASSPIRG for the billion-and-first time, they suddenly say "Hey, I should donate"? Hasn't happened to me yet, and I've been walking by those dudes for probably 6 years now.
It just seems like they should be changing it up more often. But clearly I'm no expert.
