Ellen, 

Immediately upon hearing about this bill last Friday, I wrote three letters
to the three delegates representing me who had email accounts listed on the
Web page Leslie Fisher (?) provided with her message.  Yes, I didn't
testify, but I wrote, and I passed the message on to people I thought would
be opposed to Sunday hunting.  

I know that's not the same as testifying, but my office schedule didn't
permit me to easily take most of the day off to testify.  

Best,
