*******HLS: INVESTOR OF THE WEEK*******
Huntingdon's "Secrets" Exposed
HLS's motto is "Your Secret is Our Secret." However, some of its loathsome
secrets have been revealed to the world through a series of
undercover investigations. In 1997, animal rights organizations in the
U.S. and England infiltrated HLS and emerged with shocking video
coverage that would change the public's view of HLS forever.
Extensive footage from both locations showed laboratory workers
taunting and abusing animals as they were subjected to invasive
procedures and chemical tests. In the UK, HLS workers were caught on
video while punching beagle puppies in the face. Clandestine video
footage from the NJ facility showed workers shoving and throwing
monkeys into cages, jeering at them while performing procedures and
in one gruesome scene, a supposedly "post-mortem" dissection was
performed on a monkey who was still alive, though partially sedated.
It is more important, now than ever, that we target those that invest their
money into these animal abusers. There is the recent pull out of the
investor, Charles Schwab-which held over 5 million shares of HLS stock.
British Biotech ended their business with HLS. Winterflood securites and
Kleinworth Dresdner Wassersteinand, who were HLS's only remaining market
maker, ended ties. Merrill Lynch, TD Waterhouse, and Citibank all
severed their link with HLS. HLS stock price falls and falls, and they are
off the New Stock Exchange.
And within the past few weeks: Hargreaves Lansdown in Bristol decided that
they would longer be involved with HLS. Allfirst Financial has withdrawn
from HLS, and Diamyd Medical of Stckholm as well!!
Every week there will be a week-long phone/e-mail blockade against one of
HLS investors. Some of these investors will be big companies and others will
be private investors. We will target a new investor each week. We need
EVERYONE to take a few minutes each day and let these investors know that by
supporting HLS, they are supporting animal abuse and torture.
Show them that WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!
Let's hit them where it hurt-their pockets!
**********************************************************************
There's alot of information for this weeks investor. Alot of e-mail address
and phone numbers. Send out as many e-mails as possible!! Call as much as
you can!! There is no reason to allow them to continue to support HLS!

*****LIST OF ALL THE EMAIL ADDRESSES
SAMPLE LETTER:
I am writing to urge you to discontinue your investment with Huntingdon Life
Sciences (HLS). Animals are sentient, living beings and should not be used
for experimentation or anger relief for staff members.
Since the publicity, I am certain you are now aware of the horrendous pain
and suffering animals at Huntingdon endure. Tests which force the animals
to consume toxic doses of various chemicals, inhale noxious fumes, and have
caustic chemicals applied to their raw skin is horrendous. What is even
more outlandish is documentation showing staff throwing beagle puppies
against walls and punching them in the face. This is simply not good
business. There are numerous companies discontinuing animal experimentation
and instead, using computer simulations and the vast amount of previously
accumulated data.
You have the power and the ability to do something about the excruciating
pain an annual 180,000 animals suffer. First, as an investor, you can
demand they change their practices and you can demand the staff have
psychological treatment. Second, you can cease your ownership of 2.83% of
HLS and not invest in any other company practicing archaic and brutal animal
research.
I also encourage you to look beyond the bottom line when making future
investments. Compassionate individuals, like yourself, with the gift of
financial resources to invest can create long-term, far-reaching
consequences toward a more benevolent world.
