I found the link to EVE at The Widdershins.  Dr. Lynette Long is president of this group whose mission is to make women and their accomplishments more visible.  Sounds like a good idea to me.  Sexism is multi-faceted, and there are a number of issues within sexism that need to be addressed.  I see this a one more valid movement and approach in the effort to support gender equality.  We need all the help we can get, imo.

Welcome to EVE!

EVE is a group of people committed to creating Equal Visibility Everywhere for women. We're a brand-new (March 2010) not-for-profit dedicated to achieving gender parity in the symbols and icons of the United States.
We're taking on statues, stamps, street names, currency, national holidays, and more.
Our first hot project is National Statuary Hall. Ohio is in the middle of choosing a replacement statue, and we're doing everything we can to persuade them to choose a woman. Visit our Ohio Statue Page section for updates and details on how you can help. And take our poll to tell us who you think should represent Ohio in Statuary Hall!
We'll be ramping up our other projects in the coming days. Check out our How You Can Help page if you'd like to lend a hand, and be sure to sign up for our newsletter.

Fantastic, I signed up and am so glad to see projects/programs like this, it's very important
and time to idenify women of accomplishments.
