Springboarding off Flying Tiger's thread...I received this in an email from a friend a few days ago. It might sound a little unorthodox but our right to use public land for OHV use is, and has always been, in jeopardy! All you Glamis/Ocotillo/Stoddard/fill in desert name here, users need to get involved otherwise the great desert we play in will be dead (and all your big-baller toys will be worthless!). Check it out.
"The Center for Biological Diversity is soliciting donations. They are a 501-3C. They are and have for years, been attempting to close the California
Desert to the only people that use and enjoy it. They are a left wing waco nut job organization hell bent on closing public lands.
Do me and your self a favor, in your own hand, pen a letter to the CFBD to this affect and mail it via snail mail.
I am concerned about irresponsible corporate/government/recreational (pick one) environmental policies. I have heard good things about your organization. I am interested in contributing some money. Please send me information on your activities and a detailed financial report.
Make up your own so the letters are not recognisable or fit a pattern. They will spend as much as $20.00 per year per prospective contributor. It will cost you $.39 for a stamp. Do not email them or supply an email address or phone #.
Forward this to as many people as you think might help out. Send in requests often with different names and return addresses. If a few thousand people get on board 4-5 times a year it will choke their mail system
and do the math on the clerical expense and return postage."
