[QUOTE="Matt J C, post: 81655, member: 3199"] Hi All I am not usualy one to talk openly on the internet or with emails. It is to easy for people to miss interperate the message you are trying to get across. Any way I registered with the Forum today ( I am not a 'non member lurker' anymore :) ) becuase I am discusted and very angry that a minority and individuals can publicly lie and twist the truth to perswade political decision in this way. As some one said earlyer 'it is time to say No. enough is enough'. We all should be trying to get as many people as possible to sign this petition, but not just prospectors. This is an attack on any one who enjoys the out doors from people who enjoy four wheel driving to hunters and even Mountain bike riders (we have had parts of our local National parks locked up to mountain bike riding). If these green groups have a win with this they will only move onto the next easy target, it might and probably will include further restrictions on Prospecting (this is hinted at in the VEAC report) or it could be any other out door activity that may have any impact on the environment. I wouldn't put it out of the realms of possibility that Bushwalking gets restricted at some point in time. If these controls get past as law to the full detail in the Veac report I would be devistated. Some of the most memerable times I have had with my dad and 6 year old son have been in our local bush prospecting. Please support and share this petition. Matt. [/QUOTE]
