Subject: Good news and bad news!!

Hi everyone!!

This is Nikki!

Sorry that it took me so long to get this out to you, but we just got a new computer and we're still trying to figure everything out and set everything up! We lost our email twice on the old one, and we trying to recover them all, hang in there with me!!

I wanted to let you know that I'm going to be on POW/MIA Freedom Radio tomorrow night (Sunday) at 7:00 p.m. (that's my time here in Pittsburgh) and I've got lots to talk about!! You can listen over the Internet (make sure you have real audio) America Freedom Network All you have to do is click on "Listen with Real Audio" and you can even call in to talk to me!!

The toll free number is 1-800-606-5462 and I hope you will listen if you get a chance!

Now, the bad news, Lt. Cmdr. Michael Speicher is still waiting and the petition to bring him home only has 1525 signatures on it. At this rate, to reach one million signatures it will take 10.5 more years and I don't think that Lt. Cmdr. Speicher deserves to wait another 11 years to come home!!

WE MUST DO THIS NOW, it's not even in the media anymore which means that the issue is dying again!! Please do whatever you can to spread the word about this petition and please ask everyone that you know to sign it!! Over the past three years I have been involved with so many of you, but yet I haven't seen your signature on the petition!!! Some of you might think that I am just a kid and that others can do better than I can, and that might be true, but I still care and I know that I can make a difference!! This is part of an email that I received today, from a very good friend of Lt. Cmdr. Speicher's:

"Nikki,

Thank you for the opportunity to sign your petition. We were Scott's old "runnin' buddies" as kids. He was on our swim team and we have MANY stories and memories of Scott.

Yes, he has the GREATEST sense of humor; strong enough to pull him thru WE KNOW. We've missed him since 1972 and were horrified to hear the front page news in '91 and all info. since.

I have a video tape of our local news station's report from the front yard of the house he grew up in with a few friends on camera and the memorial service given his memory in 1991."

We have the chance to help his friends and his family and I will do everything I can to bring Lt. Cmdr. Speicher back to the USA where he belongs!! If you sit back and do nothing, the only future that Lt. Cmdr. Speicher has is to once again be listed as Killed In Action. Here is the link to the petition, please sign it if you haven't already and please send it out to your lists again if you have to:

I've also heard that calls were being made to the White House comment line, if you can, please make the call, the number is 1-202-456-1111, demand that Lt. Cmdr. Michael S. Speicher be brought home now!! Thanks, hope you listen to the show tomorrow!!

Subject: UPDATE!!

This just in from the Associated Press:

Click here: Iraq Invites U.S. to Discuss Pilot

Please make those phone calls to the White House NOW!!

I don't like this story and I'm worried that if Lt. Cmdr. Speicher was alive and Iraq got word that we were looking for him, they may have done something to him.

We got another 1000 signatures overnight!! Not enough, but we're getting there!! I'm not sure if he is alive or not, but no matter what, we MUST bring him home!!!

Please don't forget about the radio show (tonight, 7:00 p.m. my time here in Pittsburgh!), I found some interesting info that I plan on challenging every political official to answer me on!! The link is:

Click here: America Freedom Network

Hope you'll be listening, keep signing that petition!!
