Kind of surprised this post hasn't generated more comments.

Could be that the planning may be in place for just a Cali event

Imho there has been so much regulatory, legislative, anti crap that folks are overwhelmed by it all and have as a result become somewhat apathetic towards it. IDK just my opinion. Many many folks behind the scenes banging their heads against the wall trying to figure out what it takes to get the involvement and money needed to effect the right kind of change. So far nothing's worked. Some don't want to draw attention to the areas that may be ok for now. Others figure they will take what they can get until it's gone and will move on to some other endeavor. Sad truth is not enough people (miners or not) realize the true implications and importance of the 1872 mining laws and how they effect ALL of the publics use and access of public lands, doesn't matter what side your on. Sorry for the mini rant it's a pizy day, not supposed to have cabin fever in July.

Rumor says a very high profile location will be needed, for a very large contingent.... just a rumor
