Angels3, I just checked my e.mail and my letter to deCastro just came back also. I don't know why, that is the e.mail address on the animal control site.
I am going to look into sending a letter to the tv station there, maybe some publicity will make them think twice.
By the way I saw the movie Gladiator, and I thought Russell Crowe was great. Yaaa for you Aussies.
