This may be already being done but when you send letters to your government representatives are you sending pictures as well. I would think that sending pictures of you and your families (kids especially) will put a face to who this bill, if passed will devastate.

I think that most non-snake lovers look at us all as being freaks of nature and don't realize that we are real everyday people that share a common passion. The fact that this passion has fueled true entrepreneurship and a multi billion dollar industry is what the American dream is all about.

I may be wrong but the staffers that open these letters have families themselves and sometimes putting a face to the reptile nation may not be such a bad thing.

I'm very hopeful for you guys!!!!
