I remember a very special month I spent in Baja California years ago, kayaking with the whales. Sitting out in Scammon’s Lagoon all alone in my kayak (my friends were off somewhere else)… I was waiting, watching, listening for the gentle giants of the sea to surface. Their presence was like nothing I have ever experienced before, very other worldly. And I was changed forever. If someone were to ask me how I was changed, I don’t know if I have the words for it.
The following seems like a suitable contribution for this segments topic. I’ve joined on to be part of the 1 million supporters.
“THE WHALE AND DOLPHIN PEOPLE PROJECT”

Starfire Tor invites the world to join “The Whale And Dolphin People Project”, her game changer campaign to save the lives of all cetaceans by changing their status from animal to non-human person. The ingenious plan is humanely and ethically inspired, and scientifically backed.
Starfire Tor’s goal is to get at least 1 million supporters to join “The Whale And Dolphin People Project” in a show of strength and solidarity. You can do this by first reading the material on the main website, and then joining “The Whale And Dolphin People Project” support pages on both FaceBook and MySpace. Also, please listen to Starfire Tor’s interview, with Whitley Strieber on Dreamland, where she explains the campaign strategy in detail. Get more detail and links on the website. http://www.starfiretor.com/
“This project helps to elevate the awareness of humans planet wise. Very important to the unity of the planet. We have to be one planet or we are no planet.” StarFire Tor
Really wonderful (am I repeating myself?) – my only regret being that I cannot participate in the wisdom of the dolphins-workshop
Really intriguing post. Got me realize I was entirely incorrectly about this content. I suppose one learns something different everyday. Mrs Right found her lesson! Good informative blog by the way. Appreciate your blog
Interesting topic. Thanks for sharing your love of dolphins. I’m wondering how to incorporate the mind of the dolphin towards the evolution of the global brain…
Kuan Yin, Chinese goddess of fearless compassion, is often depicted as riding on the back of a dolphin. I think they may be more evolve than humans. We have a lot to learn from them. Thank you for you work and sharing.
