>>I must apologize cause I did take what you said wrong...I agree that the local authorities should try to find a way to resolve the issue, and if we do have good ideas, we should shoot them on down to Florida! I guess I took it wrong because I check out some other forums, and people are talking about contacting the feds and offering a compromise; most of these people haven't read a thing, just saw the "proposed ban" title on an article or somewhere. Something that came to mind yesterday while I was out and about, was this: it appears that the SFWMD submitted their petition prior to the new laws in Florida aimed at controlling the issue of burmese pythons...would it be possible to contact them, and ask them to retract their petition? If they did that, would this change anything? Has anyone looked into this yet?
