    We need help with action on CNN story

    We are finally making the news people! Adam and I are getting all kind of links sent to us from papers and news organizations from all over the country. Most are great news and even the ones that are not as good at least bring attention to the situation. CNN just put this story out this morning on their website. The big problem we have about this is that is being billed as an exotic animal bann. This is a non-native invasive species act. The animal rights people want people to buy into the fact that this is about exotic animals that should not be kept for their agenda. We would ask everyone to read this article and e-mail Craig Lucie about getting our side out. Maybe we can not only get this more attention, but we can get it "OUR" attention. Feel free to send my info to him. Brian Barczyk bhb@comcast.net (cell) 586-246-3125 His e-mail is in the article. Thanks for all the support! You guys are making the difference!!!!Brian(BHB)

    There's also a blog post on NOHR669.com about the article and how you can help. We also need to contact CNN.com and let them know how many Americans out there oppose HR 669. Thank you for your help!
