I normally don't get involved in stuff like this, but I think this one is pretty important and shouldn't stir up much controversy.

Johnson Valley is where King of the Hammers is held each year, and it's a great place to wheel, in addition to being beautiful. If you aren't familiar with JV or KOH, check out youtube.

If you aren't familiar with the We The People online petitions, it's an online petition system where if a petition reaches a threshold for number signatures within a certain time period, the White House will respond. It's been used for a number of goofy things so far, for example, a petition to actually create a Death Star. So, it may not be the most legitimate petition system in the world. Keep this in mind, though: the petition for gun control set a record in signatures when it was created after Sandy Hook, and gun control measures were announced today. Correlation doesn't imply causation, blah, blah, blah, but it probably can't hurt if this gets a bunch of signatures.

No problem getting involved, with the way things are today if you don't get involved you will wind up with nothing. I have already signed that one, get involved and stay involved.
