>Sir,
>As you may be aware the real estate development firm of Draper & Kramer is
>installing a 7 Billion candlepower beacon atop the Palmolive Building in
>Chicago.
>I am writing to attempt to solicit your support in fighting this intrusive,
>wasteful light.
>This light not only wastes massive amounts of energy, but every year
>millions of birds are killed after being confused by bright lights and
>flying into buildings. Additionally, the beam will be visible for a great
>distance, destroying the beauty of the night shoreline for the people from
>Waukegan to New Buffalo, MI.
>One way that your members may help is by signing a petition online at:
>http://www.petitiononline.com/Beacon/petition.html
>Also write Mayor Daley at MayorDaley@CityofChicago.org and Alderman Burton
>Natarus at Bnatarus@Cityofchicago.org
>I would also light to set an appointment to discuss how we might work
>together to combat this waste.
>Thank you,
