James Cook, executive director of the California Space Shuttle Task Force, warned that any statewide action deadline set by the local California Committee for the Space Shuttle would antagonize the statewide effort amid organization delays.

He expects to pursue independent support through the State Chamber of Commerce as he lines up meetings this week.
