Note the disingenuous mentioning of the swine flu (which has nothing to do with the pet trade), as well as the now accepted *fact* that there are 30,000 Burmese pythons in the everglades.

I sent e-mails to both investor relations and viewer relations departments, as well as a hard copy letter (politely pointing out the flaws in the article) to the CEO of Discovery Communications, Inc. Yes, I know, it might be a waste of 1/2 hour, but if anyone is interested, here's the contact information:

Thanks,

Granted there are a couple of rotten apples that grow on that tree, alot of programs in discovery seem tasty to me.

I have more mixed feelings abour Animal planet channel though. the AR movement have more money so often they get prime time and the really cool shows get shoved away to some wierd hours..

Ed,

good job, thank you for the info and your efforts.

Kyle,

Thanks for the nice comments. I'm doing what I can, I can't stand to see junk science like this being put forth to scare people. Makes my blood boil.

I just made payment for my USARK membership. I don't have as
much time as others to devote to this, but I will continue to do what I can in the coming months.

I liked your idea of a video. I'd love to see such a video air on national TV, though.

Thanks,
Ed
