Hey, Myron,

I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me specifically any

action
taken by President Bush or his administration that has threatened our
wildernesses.

Op ed pieces about reports from "green" organizations are hardly hard evidence
of Bush's "Assault" on the environment. The simple fact is that many of the
actions taken during the current Administration
have either been overblown or misinterpeted, often on purpose to raise funds
for organization like Sierra Club that has not be real successful with
membership in the past years. I'm not claiming that Bush is the best
environmental steward, but he is no worse that the Clinton Administration.

Many "green" issues come down to use and access. Notice the first one mentioned
here was motors, which is more of an issue of personal preference than one of
the environment. Although one can argue that this is higher impact than non
motorized use, on lakes and rivers I not really sure that the issue is that
much in your favor.

I've argued for years that many of the "Green" organizations have focused on
their support, often blindly, to one party and at the national level. Well, now
they
have lost again, can even complain about the election being stolen this time,
and wonder why they aren't being included in the decision making.

I would take a deep breath, relax, and start looking at the individual issues.
