Congratulations, Michigan on becoming a quarantine state (immediately? once 1998 begins?). Your state legalization efforts, your quarantine work, and certainly Kodo's trial set the stage by gaining ferrets the audience you needed and giving them the information to understand ferrets as wonderful companions. If not for all the well presented facts at Kodos' trial and the ferret friends gained by those facts who knows how long it would have taken even with the federal Compendium change? Kodo saved lives; I only wish his and so many others had not been lost until now. Your news on the quarantine policy there had me literally dancing around the room! [Posted in FML issue 2117]
