Complaining about the registry: The only effective way to protest the registry is to get rid of the car and use a bicycle and public transportation. I have survived for 14 years (in Rhode Island and now in Seattle, Washington) without a car. It is far cheaper with a bicycle. There are no insurance fees. There is no registration fee - excise tax stuff to contend with. In fact, one of the best things is that there are no parking fees for bicycles. In fact, several of the commerical parking garages here in Seattle provide racks for bicycles and parking your bike in them them is free. I use the bicycle for everything; commuting 10 miles to work, three miles to choir/church; even riding the 5 miles to the opera, ballet, and symphoney. It can be done. It is good for your health. Let your actions do the complaining. Not your voice. Mark Allyn
