Thanks! I actually received an e-mail promoting this petition yesterday but didn’t act on it immediately.
It’s good to see that it’s making the rounds. Even though some may feel that signing an online petition isn’t going to change the situation. It’s at least an attempt at making a difference however small it may be. We all have the power to do something.

“Tell me the weight of a snowflake,” a coalmouse asked a wild dove.
“Nothing more than nothing,” the dove answered.
“In that case I must tell you a marvelous story,” the coalmouse said. “I sat on a fir branch close to the trunk when it began to snow. Not heavily, not in a raging blizzard. No, just like in a dream, without any violence at all. Since I didn’t have anything better to do, I counted the snowflakes settling on the twigs and needles of my branch. Their number was exactly 3,471,952. When the next snowflake dropped onto the branch – nothing more than nothing – as you say – the branch broke off.”
Having said that, the coalmouse ran away.
The dove, since Noah’s time an authority on peace, thought about the story for a while. Finally, she said to herself, “Perhaps there is only one person’s voice lacking for peace to come to the world.” – Source unknown
You’ve probably heard this story before, but it’s one of my favorites. We can all be that final snowflake. (:
