WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:

Provide Full, Permanent and Dedicated Funding for The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF)

The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) is America's most important conservation tool, investing offshore drilling revenues-NOT taxpayer dollars-to acquire lands within our national parks, forests, refuges, trails, and other federal lands while also supporting hunting and fishing access, working lands easements, and expansion and development of state and local parks. The outdoor recreation, conservation and historic preservation economy supports 9.4 million jobs each year-1 out of every 15 jobs in the U.S.

As individuals concerned with conserving America's natural heritage, we thank the Administration for including full funding of LWCF in their FY12 Budget. We now call on the Obama Administration to support full, permanent AND dedicated annual funding for LWCF at $900 million.

Wisdom Teeth

One day, a man walks into a dentist’s office and asks how much it will cost to extract wisdom teeth.

“Eight hundred dollars,” the dentist says.

“That’s a ridiculous amount,” the man says. “Isn’t there a cheaper way?”

“Well,” the dentist says, “if you don’t use an anesthetic, I can knock the price down to $600.”

“That’s still too expensive,” the man says.

“Okay,” says the dentist. “If I save on anesthesia and simply rip the teeth out with a pair of pliers, I can knock the price down to $200.”

“Nope,” moans the man, “it’s still too much.”

“Well,” says the dentist, scratching his head, “if I let one of my students do it, I suppose I can knock the price down to $50.”

“Marvelous,” says the man, “book my ex-wife for next Tuesday!”
