Hello everyone-

I just received a free copy of Ranger Rick Mag. in the mail, and was reading 
the "Dear Ranger Rick," page, and got really upset.

There was obviously a very derogatory article about "balloon launches," I 
found a link ( http://www.epa.state.oh.us/dsiwm/facts/plan/balloon.html )to 
what the National Wildlife Federation is promoting. I will send a hard copy 
of these kids' letters about how terrible balloon launches are and the 
original RR article, whenever I can find it, to whoever can scan them in at 
BHQ, if you want.

Is there any way we as an industry can respond to this bad PR? Is there a 
member of the balloon council on the list that can make an official 
response?
