Hello All:
I managed to get a hold of the Senator's Smiths Assistant Greg yesterday AM
and he assured me the Senator was firm in his opposition to drilling.
Incidentally, I live in Canada and it appears that voice is still heard if
it resonates with sincerity as he did listen after mentioning a LOT of calls
about this have been coming in. It is my wish that National Parks and
Protected Areas remain off limits for commercial interests as a rule,
bequeathed to our children for all time.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays if y'all prefer, and best Wishes in the
New Year.
Dan Seven
