There are several 800/900 numbers people can call to suggest guests for national talk shows. The McDowell plight, and the ferret issues it raises, could garner a lot of valuable publicity if Mike and Rita were to appear on some of these shows. According to Troy Lynn Eckart in Kansas, the McDowells have enthusiastically agreed to do this if they get the opportunity. If you would like to urge that the McDowells be invited to appear on one or more of these shows, you may call any of the following numbers: Geraldo: 1 900 773-2586 Jerry Speiser: 1 800 295-3779 Ricky Lake: 1 800 906-0021 Sally Raphael: 1 800 937-2559 [Posted in FML issue 0740]
