Let's let Rick Santorum know what we think of having to buy the data
that taxpayer funded NOAA already supplies.
These companies are trying to hijack weather data that the taxpayers
have funded. They no doubt will say they are just "adding value" to
the data with graphics etc. but soon enough they'll be saying that
NOAA is "unfairly competing with private industry."
Call him, write him, and if he persists donate money to his opponent.
