I have no problem with those few people who are willing to do this. Knock yourself out. I might even do it myself someday, but REQUIRING hundreds or thousands of people to inject controlled amounts of poison into themselves is NOT A GOOD IDEA. Some people have life threatening alergic reactions to tiny amounts of venom. At least if you need antivenom, it's administered IN A HOSPITAL where they can handle an alergic reaction. I think you'd almost certainly have far more keepers dropping from botched innocculations than from bites.
Frankly I think F&G will laugh at you and it will reenforce thier doubts about us. You might find a sypathetic ear with the right politician, but only if he thinks he can use it to make permits impossible to get.
Please keep this idea to yourself... ----- Larry D. Fishel
