>>Yes, thank you. I honestly appreciate your input. You have done us a great service with your comments.
>>The government and the media didn't use all those scare tactics with the ducks, did they?

They didn't have the chance -- in fact, this rule nearly slipped underneath everyone's radar. Duck keepers didn't get a good chance to respond until the "final rule" had already been written -- unlike all the public comment that has been possible with the snakes!

But yes, it is absolutely easier to use scare tactics with snakes than with ducks. No argument there!

>>There wasn't a huge amout of federal grant money in the balance was there?

I dunno much about the intakes or expenditures for either the duck or snake issues (aside from the OMB estimates), so I can't really comment here!
