Just the Facts

"BSE announcements do not affect consumer buying." -USDA Study

- NoNAIS is my effort to spread the word of how harmful the USDA's National Animal Identification System (NAIS) is to small farmers, homesteaders, pet owners & consumers.

"It is difficult to imagine any acceptable basis for the (USDA) to subject the owner of a chicken to more intrusive surveillance than the owner of a gun." -Mary Zanoni
NAIS is "No Chicken Left Behind" - government mandates with little funding. -S. Maricle

Copyright & Use
- All of my material here on the NoNAIS.org web site may be used for any purpose to fight against NAIS. This includes use on other blogs, web sites, newspaper articles, magazines, radio, television, bumper stickers, t-shirts, etc. I appreciate but do not require a link, credit or by line. If you're doing something where you can provide a link back or show the http://NoNAIS.org web address that is wonderful.
  
  On the other hand if you are an evil person or a pro-NAIS entity and you use my materials for your profit or to promote NAIS I'll sue your pants off for copyright violation and my 250 lb Montedale Ram will butt your sorry ass to hell and back. No kidding.
  
  There is a directory of artwork that can be used as well. If you're going to a rally and need signs made up, give me the size, text you want and any other specs and I may be able to help. I hear Kinkos and Staples both will print signs from downloaded artwork. I can usually supply what ever you need in what ever file format the printer needs.
Errors & Omissions
- I try very hard to have 100% accurate information on my web site. If you ever find any errors, even typos, please email me so I can fix them. Let me know the URL (page address) as well as the edit. Likewise, let me know if you think something should be added to the site. All suggestions and tips are appreciated. Please be specific about errors, cryptic messages don't help.
Money
- I am not looking for donations. My expenses for fighting NAIS so far are fairly limited. I would rather you spent money spreading the word about NAIS such as printing up copies of the posters and handout and placing ads in your local papers. If you feel compelled to send money as some people have realize I am not a 501c3 non-profit agency, thus any money you send will be considered a gift so it will not be tax deductible or anything like that. Gifts of over $1,000,000 should be made in small denominations because our local store doesn't like changing large bills. This is not to diss those who have sent money - I appreciate it and have spent it on supplies & ads to fight NAIS. I'm just not really setup to handle donations and the big thing we need to do is get more people aware of this horrible USDA proposed regulation. Spread the word - If you tell ten people and they each tell ten people...
