Post Save The Dragon!

Found this petition posted in the Dragonball Forum.



"To: North Carolina, Tenn. and GA legislators

We, the undersigned (heretofore refferred to as "we"), have joined together to make public the dissention among the general population on the subject of the proposed Highway 3 project spanning from Savannah, Georgia to Knoxville, Tennessee. We feel that the construction of such a highway would destroy several natural attractions, quaint hometowns, delicately balanced ecosystems as well as upset the delicate economies of numerous townships along its path, not the least of which being places such as Deal's Gap, the "Tail of the Dragon" (US 129), the Cherohala area and many others. By signature of this document, we show our continuing dismay that such a project would be considered, and also that we may withhold votes from those regional legislators and other proponents of this particular project.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned"

2498, I signed it. So does it intersect the dragon, or would the close down the dragon to make room for this or what? I see how it effects the local area though, and I don't really see anything good out of it for the locals. Only makes things easier for Georgia and Tenn...

Yeah, from what I have read it will cut through the Skyway and the Dragon, continuing through Maryville, then Alcoa connecting to the interstates in Knoxville. Basically it is going to "replace" US129 through there.
