So the actual changes or lack thereof will be halted until the case is decided. However, the Forest Service is scheduled to hold public comment periods for each of the National Forests, although I can't find any information on their site yet. I know Idaho's are scheduled already, so maybe they'll be posted soon. Other than that, elected Representatives almost always comment on issues like this - so get in touch with your Rep's office and let them know how you feel about the Roadless Rule.

Obviously Bush has earplugs in and blinders on when it comes to the citizens of the U.S. And who the heck do we write to to protest this proposal?

Seeing the place makes a big difference. It's no longer an abstraction. I hope folks will help by uploading their roadless area photos to roadlessland.org.
