"When I'm at home and I read about an issue I feel strongly about, I'm not likely to get out some paper and begin writing a letter because I'm usually busy checking e-mails and doing other tasks. However, when I designate an hour or 2 per month just to write letters, I get a lot written and I get to reward myself with yummy ice cream and good company."=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0APlease show your support for this event and its new host, Ben, by attending and sharing your commitment and compassion to help animals.=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0ANew activists are encouraged to attend!=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0A=0D=0AIt's helpful if you can also bring:=0D=0A=0D=0A-pen and paper=0D=0A=0D=0A-envelopes=0D=0A=0D=0A-name of your State & Federal legislators (click here)=0D=0A=0D=0A-veg or animal rights topics to write on, or use the ones we provide.=0D=0A=0D=0AWe will be meeting at the BayLeaf Cafe, a charming and all vegan/organic cafe in downtown Palo Alto.
