Fellow tweets, here is an announcement for a political activist job for a
group called the Norther Rockies Campaign. I _think_ it's an
environmental conservation group, but I'm not really sure. Also, it's
sort of in or near our Pacific Northwest region, so I thought someone
might be interested. The post also has contact points for anyone who may
want to check out the group. --Anna Coles, Seattle, WA
