Dear friends
I'm a former Board member of the TNC of TN and I want your vote (and you can
vote every day this month)!

Pepsi has a competition to fund various projects across the country.
The competition consists of a public vote on their website to determine the
projects most worthy of funding nationwide.

The TNC of TN project is called ³Save America¹s Bats,² and it¹s extremely
innovative and timely. There is currently a devastating bat epidemic known
as White Nose Syndrome that has just arrived in our state. It has killed
virtually every bat is some northern caves.

TNC wants to experiment with building an artificial bat cave to combat the
problem.
For details, you can visit their web page at nature.org/tennessee
<http://www.nature.org/wherewework/northamerica/states/tennessee/features/ar
t32688.html>  

The project will cost $250,000, and Pepsi will fund this project if it gets
enough votes. It's easy. I registered and voted yesterday and this morning!
(and I've not received any spam as a result!)

Please vote for this revolutionary idea on the TNC Pepsi site:
