#1 A court order would have prevented plugging the leak in Florida.

#2 I like when the Corps of Army Engineers dig a ditch and it gets filled with runoff then the ecokooks commence to sitting ~~Indian~~ Native American style in front of the bulldozer so that the ditch cannot be refilled. It's all for the baby ducks after all.

#3 dig a ditch? All it has to be is the rut of a tire that fills with water, and on the San Diego mesas - that's a vernal pool

#4 Reminds me of a story about a man had some land and made a pond so he can build his house nearby (so he would have a nice pond next to his house when he is finished). After building the pond the enviro-nazi's told him he could no longer build his house on his land because of the 'wetland'...

Now they are going after the fishing industry just like they destroyed the logging industry for the 'spotted owl' (who takes to new-growth forest just fine after all...).

Ok... rant over....

#5 Come, come! The important thing to realize is that protecting wetlands is a primary characteristic of a civilized,loving, caring, diverse society, whatever the wetland's source. I am appalled that a school in the non-liberated area of the PRC would be allowed to reduce its water bill and, thus, deny a non-trational wetland its continued existance. The UN needs to become involved immediately. Another example of the Bush administrations lack of concern for our environment.

#6 Sounds like a Robert (KKK) Byrd plan for West Virginia.

#7 I hate wetlands, so do the quail, so do the goldies.
