Mekayla and her mom know people in Colorado who feel this is very much
worth fighting for (defending against Bush's proposed repeal of the
roadless area conservation rule, for those just tuning in).  I don't have
time to understand all the implications now myself but I'm thinking of
just donating some money to the Sierra Club who I trust to do the right
thing and fight the right fights (Cam/Mekayla/Dad, do you also feel they
are trustworthy in that respect?  I know they're very well respected and
have been around since 1892).

There's also the Wilderness Society (wilderness.org) which I haven't
looked into enough.

* * Ok, just joined the Sierra Club at the "supporting" level.
The $25 level is actually enough to get a bunch of cool stuff.
