Bruce, don't be so discouraged. Rest assured that your proposals are noticed, and somewhere, sometime, they will eventually have some effect. As you have already admitted, it is extremely hard to change the system that is already in place. In fact, it is likely impossible for any one person to have an immediate impact on what goes on here. So don't take yourself so seriously - you have made an honest effort to contribute, and that is the most important thing.
