>>Unfortunately, a lot of the so called preservationists, conservationists and animal rights people fall into that last group. They never really liked it out there, ver. They want it developed.

That is just unadulterated BULLSH!T.

Show me a preservationist, conservationist, or ARist who wants to develop the glades. Show me even one.
