Paul, you just gave me a great idea. Here is a job for some of us to take on. Lets see if we can get an "on the record" position on this issue from all of our elected officials. I know that the Assembly guy for my district 38, Martin Garrick claims to support our point of view. I do not know the position of Mark Wyland, in the 74th Senate district but will try to find out.

Since we are going to have a new Governor next year, maybe we should see what the main contenders have to say. Gerry Brown will probably side with the enviros but who knows. Meg Whitten will likely stick her finger in the wind to see which way it is blowing and then take credit for the idea. Either way, it would probably be a good idea to know in advance where these folks stand.

I will see what kind of a response I can get from Brown and Whitten. If you would like to get involved and solicite a response from your local elected officials, please reply to this post with the names of the folks you intend to contact. You can easily find the contact info for all your state representatives here.
