Agreed. That's how I shut telemarkters the hell up too. I tell them

about my own charity. They hang up real fast after my little script.

Three years ago, when asked at TJMaxx/Marshalls to donate money (NAAR Walk), I gave about ten moms an earful about NAAR, Autism, Vaccine, Genetic Studies, then asked for Ted English's phone number (CEO who has a child with autism) so I could educate him on what autism really is. The store manager gave me the number and I left him a voice mail.... no reply of course.Roxp.s. good going - seize those momentsMaurine Meleck <maurine_meleck@...> wrote: (at the check-out counter) Woman: "And would you like to donate one dollar to the march of Dimes."

And in Minnesota, the March of Dimes rep only says what the

Immunization Action Coalition tells that group to say.

In 2006 the March of Dimes rep testified against our state's bill to

limit mercury in vaccines. Sound bite after inaccurate sound bite.

Misinformation proliferates because it's bureaucratically expedient.

March of Dimes advocating to continue exposing children and fetuses

to mercury is a travesty. Does anyone from Minnesota have a copy of

the testimoney they presented in opposition to your bill? I have

foun mentions of their stance in a newsletter and on thre Minnesota

House website.

They need to be reminded why people give them money, and what is an

appropriate use of that money. Thi si an appropriate issue for an

ACHAMP action alert.

Pretty

pathetic, though I’m not surprised. MOD here in Maine wouldn’t even support

a bill 9 years ago to increase the tobacco tax, which always results in reduced

smoking rates, especially among teens and young adults. They didn’t want

to offend their smoking walkers even though smoking is probably the biggest

factor associated with premature birth. Data I got from the Maine CDC for a

grant a few years back showed that 2/3 of the premature births here in Maine were to women who smoked

during the pregnancy. Less than 20% of all pregnant women smoked during

their pregnancies though.

My ASD son was a preemie, and I don’t

smoke and never have. I just got loaded up with the Hep B series, MMR, and a Td

over an 8 month period before he was conceived thanks to the infection control

nurse at the hospital I worked at. It would be interesting to know the factors

involved in the other 1/3 who had preemies.

Re: Re: conversation with K-Mart employee

hi.. the other week... kids from the penn state campus of york.. was collecting AGAIN for kids with cancer... as they sided up to me.. I put down my window and proceeded to lecture the kid about how they should concentrate on the autism epidemic and raise money for the awareness that mercury causes autism and how when he gets married and starts a family.. not to have his child vaccinated or get the flu shot with thimerosol.. you should have seen his face. peace, Lia
