Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

That's not a bad idea, but you have to realize that most of the businessmen that work in this field know about the ban and are doing everything possible to fight it. Please contact everyone you can. The people whose livelihoods depend on this bill not passing are fully aware of the stakes. The most important persons to contact are your Senators and Representatives. They are the ones we need to convince. Congress will be in recess soon, which means that most of the Congressmen will be heading for home. That's the time to make an appointment with them and meet with them in person. Perhaps plan a town hall meeting on the subject, making sure that your representatives are invited. I plan on taking about 200 people with me to see my Senators. Just be polite please. Our job is to educate them, not yell at them or insult them. Teach them about the issue. If we enlighten enough people we shall prevail.

I just got word from one of our senators that emails are NOT working! senators wont read them because they can be mass produced and 100s of them sent from 1 person, the only affective way is to call your senators! you can try to call both senators in your state but the Republicans are the only ones thats going to listen. CALL THEM! CALL THEM EVERYDAY!! MAKE YOURSELF A BOTHER TO THEM! THEY WILL HAVE TO LISTEN!

That just means the dems need called more
They always talk crap about how they're the ones really for the people and the republicans just care about corporations, they need to put their votes where their mouth is.

LOL even though i agree with you, dems wont listen. they will not return calls BUT CALL THEM ANYWAY! our best hope is reps. i have been told reps have a better call back and willingness to work with the people and besides reps gave a lot on the damn health care plan thats going to screw the young, the old and the poor, if reps say hey now its your turn to give a little or we'll kill whats left of the health care bill the dems have to work with them. another think reps will love it because its a big fu to the dems and their health care bill lol but seriously call ALL Senators and yes call dems more but make sure you get good contact with Reps, they are our best hope
