I will also forwad this to Zoe Lucas, who has oodles of experience  
picking up many kinds of litter on beaches on Sable Island, including  
balloons from many, many places and kinds of sources.  Perhaps she  
could help us with how to campaign on this important issue.  Check  
out the greenhorsesociety Web site maintained by Zoe regarding Sable  
Island.  Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
