US Fluoride - Sign the Online Petition
(Fluoride Action Network)
www.fluoridealert.org
FROM PHILLIP DAY: Prof Paul Connett has done a great job organizing this petition, so now it is up to us. All US subscribers to EClub should take a moment now to click here and sign the FAN petition for a full Congressional hearing into the dangers of fluoride additives. There is no better time than now to make your outrage felt.
From: Paul Connett
I was very excited yesterday when the online petition yielded 240 votes in one day. Today was even more incredible. In the last 24 hours we have added 464 votes, going from 2275, at 8:15 pm last night, to 2739 votes at 8:25 pm tonight. Over 700 votes have been added since Saturday morning! But this isn't just about numbers. Please take some time out and read some of the comments.
Some new states have entered the race and so I am expanding the count to the Top 30 states (see below).
And some more exciting news - we have expanded our National Dream Team by three states: Delaware, Pennsylvania and Vermont. Please welcome Alan Muller of Green Delaware <amuller@dca.net>; Bill Smedley of GreenWatch, Pennsylvania <bsmedley@kcnet.org> and Mary Lou Alberts from Bennington, Vermont <loulou@together.net>.
If you live in one of these three states please contact Alan, Bill or Mary Lou and offer your moral (and other) support. We are only going to stop this nonsense if we all work together. Our National Dream Team (see listing below) has already shown us how it can be done. We are still looking for someone from Montana to help relieve the pressure on Sarah Rollins.

California continues its steep climb with another 96 points added today
and now occupies first position. Oregon slips to second, even though it
added 51 points. Utah and Arkansas remain in third and fourth positions
but Florida with another 37 points has jumped over Washington and pulled
within 2 points of reaching Arkansas. Nearly 100 points separate 7th placed
New York from number 8 Massachusetts. Texas remains in ninth position,
but both Pennsylvania and Hawaii have overtaken New Hampshire, to occupy
the 10th and 11th spots. Colorado stays at 13th. Georgia added 25 points
to jump from 17th to 14th position. Illinois slips to 15th and Michigan
squeezes past Kansas to reach the 16th spot. Wisconsin jumps over Missouri
and newcomers Ohio, Tennessee and New Jersey push Montana back to the
23rd position.
3)
Only 14 points separate 19th placed Missouri from the three states at
equal 26th position, so with the avalanche of votes coming in we can expect
some big changes tomorrow. Just checked the latest total at 10:15 pm -
2769 votes. That's 30 votes since I started writing this!

So another very exciting day - congratulations everyone!
