I'm sure that like many Brits here in the UK I followed the progress of the Udall Bill with high interest, in the realisation that it could change all our lives. I really felt for all you Americans who worked so hard only to see it stopped at the last stage. At times I felt impotent because I could do nothing to help. On many occasions I considered sending a letter to support it but had the uneasy feeling that it might be taken wrongly if a `foreigner` tried to influence the politics in another country. However, in the light of recent messages on the list from Stephen Lofthouse and the reply from Marjorie Oldfield (outlining a possible format) I feel that perhaps there might be a case for an international message of support. What do the organisers of the forthcoming January campaign 1997 feel about this ? Would it be appropriate ? We would need to take your advice on this. I would be prepared, if requested, to email, write or phone and I'm sure that many around the world would feel the same. Let us know if you feel there is anything we can do. Good luck in the forthcoming fight, Every best wish, Roy Roy A Edwards, U.K. ([log in to unmask])
