Do you think this has anything to do with the state of affairs?


The Texas Parks and Wildlife issued the following news release:

Carter Smith was named executive director of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department on Dec. 5 at a special meeting of the TPW Commission in San Antonio. Smith will be leaving the helm at The Nature Conservancy of Texas to take the top job at TPWD.

"Carter Smith is a well-respected conservationist and has proven his ability to develop successful partnerships with landowners and others," said TPW Commission Chairman Peter Holt."

Peter Holt of Holt Caterpillar...wonder how he makes his money?

And what makes you think they care one bit about gleaning any helpful data from the process? They could care less. That's not what it's about.

I apologize for the off topic conversation. Just trying to make a point others have tried to make here with Brad.

Brad, You're a good guy, a smart guy, with a lot of good input, but I just gotta say I think you're all wrong about blaming all our troubles on Rep. Hilderbrand and having so much faith in HCU. HCU members attacked the commercial guy unmercifully and threw the turtle people {like me) under the bus. All that bluster and bravado, what did it get you? HCU's record speaks for itself. Bunch of misguided sophomoric bush-league nonsense.

Just my opinion, but I think you're being a bit naive. The playing field is huge and the AR agenda is a tsunami.

I hate being so harsh. I honestly want to see HCU succeed and I honestly like Brad. Not trying to make this personal at all.
Feel like I need a shower now. Sorry for the off topic rant.
