• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

CALIFORNIA REPTILE PEOPLE: Please Read--- and take 30 seconds to fill out
the fields to tell them to vote NO on Assembly Bill 339! Then SHARE
EVERYWHERE!

California Assembly Bill 339 was introduced on February 13, 2013 and has
been assigned a Committee. This bill would make it illegal to sell reptiles
and animals at reptile shows currently held six or more times annually
under California Business and Professions Code. It is important to carve
out reptile shows from this bill now should definitions for “swap meet” be
altered.

here is the USARK link

http://usark.org/campaign/vote-no-to...mbly-bill-339/

USARK has made it very easy to do. One filled out message(pre-written with a place to add your own story!) and form, and a bunch, if not all, council members are contacted!

I copied this from a CVHS message sent to me, thanks edgar
 
Signed with added comment.

I'd also like to thank Edgar from CVHS for sending out the alert as I was not aware of it. Came here to post, so thank you Roxanne for doing so!

It's a pre-filled form, all anyone needs to do is fill in the boxes and hit sumbit.

thank you!!
 
ok just update from auto replies:

Nancy Skinner (Alameda/Contra Costa Counties) is not accepting emails via the auto-sender, so her auto-response advises "the best way to send e-mail communication is via Assemblymember Skinner’s website www.assembly.ca.gov/skinner . E-mails received through this website can be tracked by both the Capitol and District office and will help ensure that you receive the appropriate response or assistance.

If you reside outside of Alameda and Contra Costa County and want to contact your state representative, go to www.assembly.ca.gov and click “find my district.”

Roger Dickinson, Assemblymember, 9th District - http://asmdc.org/dickinson and use the "Contact Roger" web link form.

Melissa A. Melendez, Assemblywoman, 67th District - "please reply to this email and provide your mailing address and other pertinent contact information so that we can keep track of the commentary you have provided and ensure that the correct legislator receives your important message."
