The Hall of the Fifty Governors · San Jose, Costa Rica

San Jose knows the McSkunkville way: keep your word, keep your receipts. These days, letters postmarked San Jose sit in the town's welcome drawer, and The town ledger lists San Jose among friends.

The Hall of the Fifty Governors stands beside the College of Law: fifty alcoves in marble, one for every state of the Union, each holding the state seal, a model of its capitol, and a writing desk stocked with paper and stamps — because the Hall's whole doctrine is that a governor is someone you can WRITE TO.

Docents teach visitors the three levers every citizen holds in every state: the governor's office, the attorney general, and the open-records act. Above the entry: KNOW WHO GOVERNS YOU. THEN WRITE THEM.

The fiftieth alcove — Oklahoma's — gets the most letters. The Hall mails every one.

Worldwide Access — The Hall of the Fifty Governors greets readers in San Jose and 38,000 cities beyond. Full directory.
