New Save Tara Petition

Passing this along from Brian Walsh.

As many of you are aware the Irish are building a highway through the Tara Skeen valley; one of the most historically, religiously, and archeologically important sites of Western Europe. Save Tara is petitioning the EU to protect the site.

And make sure you stop by Kathryn’s blog as she has some great links to Tara-related material (vigil camp, message boards, etc).
