If you could reach 25% of an audience of probably a couple hundred impressionable teenagers with your message, isn't it still worth it? I'm sure pastors/preachers/fathers/whatevers know their entire audience isn't devoting 100% of their attention to the message, but it's still getting across to some people and still making a difference.
Where would we be without the agitators of the world attaching the electrodes of knowledge to the nipples of ignorance?
