Just a reminder: the truly heinous CDBTPA isn't dead yet. In an ongoing effort to point out how pervasive and stupid this law really is, Ed Felten continues to amass a list of things that will be regulated under this horrid bill. Write your Congressperson now, using pen and paper, and tell him/her how bad an idea you think this is. If you don't want to do that, at least email them.
If you're going to email, keep this in mind: the Congressperson doesn't read your email. They don't want to read forty-seven pages of single-spaced text laying out your argument with twelve pages of footnotes attached. A staffer will read your email, and add another tick to the "for" or "against" column on some worksheet somewhere which will eventually be summarized for the Congressperson. So ... write your email with no profanity, and probably just one sentence like "I'm vehemently opposed to the passage of the Hollings' CBDTPA bill."
