I help Don Reed with letters to various state legislators.  Delaware,
Oregon, Florida, etc.  Our opponents are busy busy trying to ban and
criminalize ESCR in the states.  Don is trying to develop some way to combat
it.  His son Roman is a quadriplegic and Don does a lot of Prop 71 advocacy
in CA.  Will discuss when we meet.  I also get congressional alerts from
CAMR as well as PAN.
