    Multiply your influence on HR669
    Every single Herper needs to send in 22 letters to the 22 members of the sub committee about to have a hearing regarding the future of our industry. This is the very least you can do!

    I put together a little video explaining an easy way to print the letters that does not involve cut and paste or any technical computer savvy for the least geeky of computer users. I put the file together for you. All you have to do is print it. Anyone can do this. In fact, even if you do not have a printer, you can do this! Click and watch this video to see how you too can make a contribution to this cause:

    YouTube - Help fight HR 669

    Now. Every one of us can have a much larger role in helping with this effort! I have uploaded a video here that explains it all. No typing except a short email. You too can make a HUGE difference sending in hundreds of signed letter like I am going to do. Watch this video:

    YouTube - Multiply your impact on HR 669

    And finally, I have a little video for you Herpers who have done nothing and have no intention of doing anything. This one is for you:

    YouTube - So you don't believe hr669 is a threat?

    Thank you,

    Re: Multiply your influence on HR669
    That's some tough love, Jeff. I like it. Thanks so much for putting together the file for the letters. I for one will be all over it and my friends will be too. I think the powers that be will be shocked at the response they get from our "little" group of people.

    Try saving it first and then try opening it. It is a pretty large file for a word document.

    I didn't see this thread until now, but Jeff emailed me the link yesterday. Not many people sleeping around the Man Cave lately! If there's anyone going to White Plains this weekend, my friend Carl and I will be there with 50 sets of Jeff's letters all ready to be signed and Fedex'd overnight to Tom monday night, Tuesday morning delivery. We should have over 100 sets altogether, but at least 50 more will be available at the show. 90% of the work will be done for you. All you have to do is sign your name 22 times and leave us your full name and address. Easy as I can make it!

    I'll also have signup forms for NCARK at my table, please stop by and sign up!

    Jimi Reed is a working stiff like most of us and because Jimi cares about not loosing his buisness that he has built up and all his animals, Jimi is busting his rear end to do the most important thing that he can do and that is sending letters. Letters from not just Jimi, but letters from 49 other people so far! Letters!? Thats 1100 letters on behalf of you who have done nothing!

    I know most people have done something right? You did the little clicky and email thingy right? But your single email is not as valuable as one single signed letter is! If you have sent a single email, Jimi has done more that 1100 times more than you have and that is no exaggeration! What are you waiting for? Download the file:

    No excuses! Jimi! You are my HERO!

    I've got to keep this hobby alive so I can work my way up to the likes of you and the other big breeders. :D

    I hope to get more this weekend. My none reptile related business being slow is a good thing right now. :P I've been spending most of my time on this HR669 stuff.

    You are getting it done! This is fantastic and thank you for each and every one of you who is sending in letters of any kind to Tom Wolfe! A even larger thanks goes to you who have sent in BOXES full of singed letters! This is fantastic!

    Friday's mail at Tom Wolfe's place:

    http://www.boaconstrictor.net/galler.../wolfe-fri.jpg

    Saturday's mail at Tom Wolfe's place:

    http://www.boaconstrictor.net/galler.../wolfe-sat.jpg

    I can't wait to see Monday and the biggest day Tuesday! I know of around 10,000 that will be delivered on Tuesday alone! This is going to be huge and I hope each and every one has a large part in putting this down as forcefully as is humanly possible.

    Thank you for your help!
