Without the help and support of Gretchen and many others I don't think I could have gotten through this year. I have met a lot of wonderful, caring people through this list and have even had the pleasure of meeting some of them in person. Thank you to all.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 1999 Report Share Posted November 20, 1999 Continued contact with sympathetic congressional members is important. In a letter received yesterday, Congressman Jim Ryun of Kansas (we are NOT Kansas residents) states: " Although I have not yet decided to co-sponsor the Anthrax legislation currently in Congress, I agree that the AVIP needs further review concerning its safety and efficacy. I will continue to work with the rest of the Personnel subcommittee to monitor and question the Anthrax vaccination program. It is important that I hear from you. Please feel free to contact me again with comments or concerns on matters that are important to you.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 1999 Report Share Posted November 20, 1999 Hi Gretchen, You have certainly accomplished much in a year. Goliath may not be dead, but you have certainly kicked him in the knee (re: Star Trek VI, The Undiscovered Country). Thanks for what you have done, risks taken, sacrifices made. Also had to acknowledge the message on holding leaders accountable: " I tell them, " fear the Lord, not the disease. " " Great stuff.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 1999 Report Share Posted November 21, 1999 Dear List; Gretchen and her courageous list are living up to what the founding fathers of this nation designed -- a government by the people and for the people. The citizens of our country and her servicemembers are indebted to the selfless efforts of patriots like Gretchen and the many others who seek the truth. As our information age evolves our nation's leaders need to harness the example set by the Gretchens of America and lead by her example rather than disparagement. The servicemembers of our nation have a duty to protect citizens like Gretchen, our Congress and our Commander and Chief. Each have a similar duty to servicemembers. Keep the faith, Major L.
