Guest guest Posted November 26, 2000 Report Share Posted November 26, 2000 The Petition to Ban Mercury Fillings Worldwide (BITE) has been officially certified by PetitionOnline.com. It is now listed under the Environmental Petitions area.It is imperative that everyone works hard to get this petition to the front page of this site. It is there where you can bring the importance of this to those who are less aware, or unfamiliar with the issue.. The Bite petition went on-line late yesterday afternoon and with only 80 signatures, is now ranked the #6 Environmental Petition on petitiononline.com. ( I think it has something to do with how fast the signatures are obtained). The largest environmental petition is a Sand Dune Petition with just over 10,000 signatures. Surely mercury in teeth is more important than being able to drive dune buggies over dunes. (That is what the sand dune petition is about!)As of 3:00 p.m. today we had 80 signatures. We require tens of thousands!!! The faster we can get them, the more likely the chance of my being able to make this into a news item. I am involved in a News Conference being scheduled before the fifteenth of December in Chicago. The subject of the News Conference is "Mercury", and it sure would be nice to use this opportunity to show just how overwhelming the support for the ban of mercury use is, as opposed to doing this conference, knowing just how insignificant it is, to so many! I have added a link to our home page (http://www.talkinternational.com ), which enables persons to connect directly to sign - up. In addition, a provision has been added to enable you to send this petition to friends. Please use it! If you have been poisoned by mercury, or involved in fighting this issue as long as I have, I do not need to tell you just how depressing and unrewarding this whole mercury thing is! In fact, it is only through these small victories that we are able to achieve any sense of accomplishment at all!! For the sake of yourselves, your patients and your families, and friends, who have suffered severe adverse health effects from mercury, please make this petition a priority, and I will promise to get as much mileage to effect change from your efforts as is humanly possible. Thank you Wayne Obie Media & Public Relations CFMR http://www.talkinternational.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
