The Letter (II)

After flirting with “hating” deadlines, ODP suddenly likes them again. Well, when he gets to set them:
I have sent similar letters to the leaders of the Liberal and Conservative parties. In order to help inform the voters of our province, we would appreciate your response by Tuesday, September 16, 2008.
The sharp-eyed grammarians will notice the curious shift in personal pronoun number between the two sentences.
