Hi,
Not to mention use of the word "hike" when you really mean bushwalk.
And if you are talking about a piece of paper it is licence not license.
Don't they teach you anything at greenie school????
cya,
Roger.

that and will make people think that your cause is for people with
terrible grammar skills and is very likely to scare people away from even
bothering about what you have to say.

East Gippsland 23rdto 30th of September.Greetings All,This is an
amazing opportunity to experience front line activism, protect native
old-growth forest and spend a week in one of the most beautiful parts
of Australia.This sensitive region is vitally important, with the
areas being logged included the Snowy river water catchment system
and the border of Errinundra national park, with clearfells up to 120
hectares in size containing plant and animal life that are critically
endangered, and as there has never been an evaluation of these areas
so we are logging the unknown, especially as this is a warm
temperate, cool temperate crossover area with its own unique flora
and fauna. Most of this virgin native rainforest becomes woodchip
then Japanese paper.What will be happening in East GippslandSkill
sharing will be a major focus of the week essential for running any
environmental campaign in Australia. We will learn how to tree climb,
how to build blockading structures and general bush survival
skills.In terms of actions that will take place this is Dependant on
scouting and seeing what is possible. It will work by a consensus
based organising structure, so if people want trouble then their will
be trouble.Blockading and good old protest.Possibilities include,
entering into coups and stopping logging, chipping mill action, a
protest at the department of forestry. We will be camping at Ellery
Creek Camp Ground, which is situated in this most pristine area, with
creek running very drinkable water. There are great places to hike
and see some of the oldest and largest trees in Australia. You can
also play with baby wombats or try to ride a pony.Petrol costs will
be pooled and food will be provided so the cost will be between $50 -
$80 (as petrol costs are not yet known) with subsidies for those who
are in financial difficulties (so money is not an excuse to not come
down).Ben's truck will be heading down on the 22nd so any tents,
sleeping gear and packs that you want to take down can go down then
to maximize room in other vehicles.So fuck everything else off and
come down, and if you can't do that because of something like court,
come down after all that's finished.It will be well worth it. And
tell your friends as well! There are mobs coming up from Melbourne
and Brisbane, so it would be embarrassing if Sydney and the rest of
NSW can't put together a big crew.There will be a vehicle heading
back on the 26th so if people need to head back early that can be
arranged.Please let me know by email ASAP. We also need vehicles if
anyone has a car or license this will be gold. So let me know of this
too!For more info go to
