      Subject: [SCOPEny] Sen. Nozzolio Public Meeting     
This would be a good opportunity for gun owners and sportsmen to 
voice their opinion on the Grannis nomination.  Outdoor wildlife 
related activities in New York impact the economy to the tune of 
$6.22 BILLION!  Hunting and shooting sports account for nearly one 
third of this total.
I did talk with Nozzolio in Albany and he is opposed to the Grannis 
nomination so if you go to the meeting please make your comments 
about Grannis in relation to his lack of qualifications and the 
potential for damage to the economy of Upstate resulting from bad 
policy from the DEC.
