Maybe a catchy phase like "click it or ticket" with safe passing distance might be worthwhile too. I had one come around my today no more than 6" from my bars, and that was on a straight road with 3 or 4 hundred yards of forward visibility ahead and not another car is sight. I don't have much hope of reaching people like that, they simply think bikes shouldn't be on the roads.
Agreed... more with the "resonate thing" and the "who" idea. A catch praise is great too... it sticks in the mind... "Give me Three" <--- I recall that from somewhere...

Of course in the situation like you mentioned, some AH could just say "yeah, inches... ha ha... " and really get close.
