Thanks, TX folks, for all your efforts.

To folks not in Texas, please think about joining this group in support of their efforts. Even though I'm far from Texas, I joined to help in some meager way.
This is an organization that reflects hobbyist concerns and still has conservation in mind (as opposed to irrational protectionism).
It seems to me it is more analogous to the likes of "Trout Unlimited" where "catch and release" is encouraged, but not mandatory where game laws permit, and members become watchdogs of the land, sport, and animals. TU members and volunteers work positively with "Fish and Game" folks, National Forest folks, National Park folks, etc. to preserve the sport and interests, while maintaining these renewable resources.
This similar approach seems to me to be the win/win balance for the herping hobby!
Just a thought - Nothing more!!!
.
and Happy New Year to all.
