<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">To all,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I find the reaction of the media to the initiative pathetic, and frankly disgusting.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">What should it even<B> matter</B> anyway if such a plea from ordinary citizens is not exactly 'to the letter of the law' ? Doesn't everyone (people and government alike) have a stake in a safer and more enjoyable celebration of the new year?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">To put forward that the initiative does not 'conform' is both arrogant and irresponsible.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have seen (in England) what fireworks can do in the wrong hands. The appalling burn wounds, the scarring and the misery, and how a few seconds of 'innocent fun' can result in a long legacy of suffering.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The media (if they can feel) should be deeply ashamed that they have to bring these sort of comments up.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Regards,</FONT>
