I've been thinking about this the last couple of days, and I don't know if
this will get things stirred up that shouldn't be, but it seems that if
people are going to play politics with our natural resources, then we have
an obligation to speak out. And I don't think that Bruce really crossed any
line of decorum by making a wise crack. It's been established that certain
members of this list don't want to here any political discussion, but I
think that when it concerns native fish it should be discussed. We just
shouldn't get nasty or make personal attacks. Maybe I'm too much of a free
speech advocate. That's my two cents worth. Also, I feel better for having
spoken my mind.
