   Was there really a large quantity of email, faxes, and phone calls?
   The impression I got was that there was one electronic petition with
   tens of thousands of signatures, but not a lot of other.

asked people to use the phone, not email, to contact their Senators:
   
   Right up until the last minute, callers reported weary Senatorial
   staffers continued to report a deluge of incoming calls, almost all
   against the Exon/Coats bill and supporting the Leahy alternative...

This is, of course, in addition to the monster petition which Leahy
showed on TV.
