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.

RED ALERT: Stop SF Pet Ban Now!
RED ALERT: Stop SF Pet Ban Now!
The San Francisco Commission of Animal Control and Welfare will vote tonight 7/8/10 on a recommendation to enact an ordinance that would prohibit the sale of pets by pet stores. The proposal originally targeted dogs and cats, but as voted on by the Commission appears to include Reptiles, Amphibians & Tropical Fish as well potentially feeders. This could potentially ban all pets in San Francisco.
Please take Action Now to Stop the San Francisco Pet Ban!

Are y'all SURE this is the right place to send emails, that is in the instructions with the USARK emails? Here is the response I got today, after following USARK's instructions and sending my response:

Thank you for your recent email about a proposal to ban the sales of birds and animals from pet stores in San Francisco.
We recently have received a number of contacts about this issue. However, looking back two months, I do not see any legislation introduced at the Board of Supervisors that would ban the sales of birds and animals. Perhaps another body (the Animal Care and Control Commission?) may be discussing this issue?
Thanks for your input, "
