Rob mentioned the Kids vs. Global Warming law suits. I noted that
Alec was from CA and contacted the Green I knew best there....
Kendra Gonzales. That was her replying note. <br>

I met Alec when he was 13...he and his family attended Al Gore's
"An Inconvenient Truth" along with most of the activist community
here. We gathered and sent 250+ postcards demanding local action
to our City Council. From that, we all organized a Town Hall mtng
in the same theatre - standing room only (300+ people)<br>
<br>
The non-profit I work with (Board Member now) VCCool (Ventura
Climate Care Options Organized Locally) and Kids v Global Warming
were "born" from this action in 2006 / 2007....at the same time. <br>
<br>
In fact, Alec really got started "tabling" at VCCool's very first
Kids Bike Safety Rodeo and I'm in the throes of helping to
organize our 5th Bike Rodeo May 21st. On Sunday the 15th, Ojai is
having its iMatter March, which is where Alec and his family live
- I'll be attending that for sure. I've also worked closely with
his mom... so...yes...we've certainly talked and I'm "plugging"
the iMatter March as much as I can. Its SO amazing what he is
doing and I'm looking very forward to seeing how the law-suits
turn out...I'd imagine you know about that? <br>

Note: there is a local connection here in that one time San Mateo
County Congressman, Pete McCloskey, is involved in the litigation.
