Many thanks: Just keep sending me your good thoughts, and also
the names, etc. of anyone you know in Lodi, Escalon, Stockton. Tracy, Lathrop, Manteca, Brentwood, Oakley, Danville, San Ramon, Pleasanton, Dublin and Morgan Hill. I will then contact them, use your name and ask for their help against this man who wants to privatize the remaining public lands in Northern California. Pombo also has introduced a bill to allow Congress to override the Supreme Court on constitutional issues. He deserves being beaten by someone, Republican or Democrat. . . . Pete
