In answer to Don Hoff Jr. regarding my letter to Sealaska Shareholders....

Re-read the letter Don and get the facts straight. I wasn't urging the shareholders to allow drilling on our lands. That has already happened and is still happening. I am urging the shareholders to write to Congress to make sure the Native people get the profits that we rightly deserve. What happened to unity amongst our people? Rather than taking so much time slamming everyone on these forums and in the paper, why not take all that energy and speak out for our rights as Alaskan natives and work with our people?

Oh, and by the way, that is MRS. Gallagher.
