Animal Welfare Act Revisions

I wanted to point everyone to this page:
http://www.aavs.org/actionalertsSpecialAlert.html
Before the deadline of November 1st.

It's about the Animal Welfare Act and how the USDA is now requesting public input before it proposes the necessary new regulations.

Every little bit helps.
Thanks!

And I always have to have star wars in my blog designs, and the speeder bike in the forest seemed very appropriate. Please visit my post about the
