I see the governor's letter as very good news.

It's direct and to the point, it comes from a position of authority, it frames the issue with no hyperbole, he recognizes and addresses the international scope that the problem is precipitating, and it includes a call to action.

Statesmanship 101, this letter.

I don't know what his track record is with regard to mining v. environment, but if he stands behind this statement, we've got a very strong and articulate ally in Governor Herbert.

I'm thinking additional letters from racers to Neil Kornzie, Sally Jewel and Kevin Oliver, citing and referencing this letter and reinforcing the governor's position could well hasten BLM action.

Okay-

I've got my business cards printed.
I'm going to get the poster printed to set up by my race car at the Denver show over Thanksgiving.

My problem is that the www.save-the-salt.org website has very little information.
     There is no link to the "news" page.
     There is no information on who makes up the Alliance.
     There is no contact information.

The Utah Alliance can certainly bring a new aspect to the drive for restoration of the Salt Flats.
I feel that should be trying to bring new people in to join our project rather the just "preach to the choir".

Just my .02

Will6er, I just looked and I didn't see it either. It turns out you have to magically know you have to click on 3 little lines in the upper right hand corner.  :cheers: Wayno

I have a question regarding what I just posted. Does the website show up differently to people depending on how your computer is set up?  :? Wayno

When I go on the sve the salt site I also find the only way to get more info than the cover page is clicking onto those three little lines. It would be nice to see a traffic counter to see if the site gets many hits.

Great-
I found it.

But- would someone only marginally interested know where to look?
A simple, "Click Here" would be much handier.

Thanks

the nav bar apparently has limits on length/content. made some edits so it now is back on the main page.

Clicking on the link to "Download this Poster" just displays a new window with a small .jpg image of the poster, not a PDF or a Word Doc that can be printed large. The small image would never be able to be printed on poster size paper with any quality. A PDF or .doc file would be much better.

Thanks-

It works on my laptop now.(not so well on my iPhone)

I'll feel more confident handing out the cards.
I haven't picked the site over, but what I've seen is great.

Thanks again

Got my poster printed today and it is very good.
It's much better than the earlier one.

Thanks
