This article points out that of the 668 manatee deaths last year, only
68 were boat related. When you consider that any manatee with recent
injuries that look like a boat strike are put in that column, no
matter what the real cause of death was, *it is really not a huge
number. The other thing they have figured out is Manatee are not
particularly rare and certainly not "endangered".

i wonder if those figures reflect all four classes of 'em. Not
counting their cousins the Dugong?

Theyr'e on the move Greg. Yep -to the power plant.


I was at the DEP office Friday for my water quality QA and I
talked to
one of the biologists. She says when they do necropsy in the winter
they are finding manatee with undigested grass still in their
throats.
The literally freeze while they are eating if they venture away
from
the power plant. If they stay there they starve.

Yeah we are really "saving them".

The crime is heating the water.

Gee, on that note, I suppose I should ask my wife to shut off the
"birdbath" water heater she runs outdoors all winter, so that
passing
birds have unfrozen water to drink.


I suppose it all depends on if you support the endangered species
act.
That says you should not intentionally be interrupting or altering
natural migration patterns with human activity.

Both my wife and I enjoy watching the little creatures, and I don't
believe any of the crap they say about not feeding the wildlife. The
animals don't care, why should you?


If you are going to ID spoof someone who can write, you probably
shouldn't write like a moron, moron. :)

Wow, what ****ed you off? You sure seem to enjoy picking Usenet fights.


You mean, other than the fact that you are a liar, a fraud, and a
troublemaker here?

You and your buddies or alter egos "Harry Kari," (the former CrotchRot),
Ziggy, et al, really haven't anything of interest on topic to discuss
here, and all you do is disrupt. I don't know what your problem is with
the real Harry, (and i don't care) but your behavior here is just plain
juvenile. There are many posters who are making an effort to improve the
atmosphere here. You three (or two or one) are not among them. It is
obvious you boys would rather this newsgroup return to the way it was.

Hey 'Paul', as you are so new here you don't know of any of the problems
with
the real Harry, how could you possibly know 'the way it was'?s

You keep making these little boo-boos. :)

or... maybe he's just a good 'judge of character'!
My opinion........... y'all are as transparent as Cling Wrap..........
anyone could get 'the lay of the land' within a week of reading your posts.

Nice insulting. Harry has asked you to quit but you won't. I guess you
don't want that group harmony you keep bringing up, eh?
