All an email campaign would do now is revive focus on something that
happened back in February..

I'd rather see people emailing the NPS objecting to a sentence in the
text they required the bozos to include on their [the three mountain
bikers caught riding illegally in the Grand Canyon] Website,
ridingthespine.com, which said that mountain bikes cause
environmental damage. (The text is now gone; apparently the
requirement was for it to be there a couple of weeks.)

These guys are from Santa Cruz, according to an article in the
Chronicle.

I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to
humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help? (I spent the previous 8
years fighting auto dependence and road construction.)

Please don't put a cell phone next to any part of your body that you are fond of!
