>>With Florida leading the nation if foreclosures ,unemployment schools in the toilet ........Why was this deal made?

So Mr. Charlies tan skin and pearly whites does not go to waste... he's still going to 'look' good! LOL! Ernie, you have a pretty good point made here. Glad to hear you chime in. Now, WRITE Uncle Bill anyway!

p.s. - I was initially SO happy to hear about the deal, then with more info realized it's not potentially going to be about restoration in the classic sense... why? The land is literally TOO far GONE and one of the largest ecological problems the state will ever deal with. Kind of a 180,000 acre dump (super massive amounts of phosphorous) that needs so much cleaning before water can ever leave it again... Maybe some 'bright' minds will determine a good route for ecological succession which will eventually lead to an 'old' style sheet flow for water into the Glades... just hope I'm not dead before then and can see the benefit if it ever happens.
