"I Brake For Butterflies" Bumper sticker

I think Monarch Watch should put out a bumper sticker with their logos - I'll take 4 - or more - "Get-er-done"

I need one that says "I brake for milkweed." I have been out scouting the roadsides for clumps of milkweed. The caterpillars have almost eaten everything I have at home.

I actually have one that says "Got Milkweed". Today I had a huge container full of milkweed in the back and people were kinda looking at me funny.

I've seen "I Brake For Butterflies" license plate frames. But I've been shocked that butterfly lovers shamelessly put them on their 4,600 pound, V8 powered, 17 miles per gallon SUV's & Vans http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k75/4af/brake.jpg even though SUV's & Vans do this to butterflies:

During a mass migration of painted ladies (2-3 million), which took place about 2-3 years ago even a small car would be covered with butterflies.

I have the old bumper sticker from 2003 that says "got milkweed", and it's still on in 2009! It's a great addition to my car!

Even in the dead of winter, I can see people smiling when they read my "Got Milkweed" bumper sticker. It also has the website address for Monarch Watch.
