Understood.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I was going to say I had a different opinion about something but

I don't want to complicate your situation any more.



I did not realize that they had your hands tied.



This is getting out of hand with all the unnecessary laws.



The third world countries eventually will surpass us economically because they are less restricted. The USA is going to throttle itself with law.



I know for a fact that they don't do studies in determining what

animals should be "protected". They sure aren't protecting these trees....are they. If they want to protect wildlife, stop building. I don't see them slowing that down. How would you like to go to a Bog Turtle site and see a house on it? Or go to a place in a forest where you used to be able to collect a lot of beautiful garter snake except you can't because the area is unrecognizable due to the fact that the entire forest for miles has been striped of trees and the roads don't look the same!



These guys who are being processed for their "crimes" are going to be damaged far more than any of these big lumber companies.



How about putting a moratorium on oil!



If; like you say, some of the people in these agencies have a lot of time on their hands why don't they take a trip to the forest and deserts with garbage bags in hand and start picking up the trash that seem to be everywhere. I'd have a lot of respect for that.



Like I said before; now that sending animals INTO other states is going to be an issue, there is going to be a lot of paperwork and delays because now people aren't just going to call up a state Fish and Game office and take the word of some clerk or and officer stating that its ok to ship certain species into that state. I'm going to want it in print.



Again; thanks for the detailed reply and good luck.....we're

all going to need it.
