Mine is down at Jerry Standers on S. SanteFe just south of No Woods Inn if you want to take a look at the work. I get it back tomorrow, put it in last monday. Taking apperance credit for bed area of $125 to get it out tomorrow. It looks almost brand new the way they shined it up.

"There is this to be said for walking: It's the one mode of human locomotion by which a man proceeds on his own two feet, upright, erect, as a man should be, not squatting on his rear haunches like a frog." E.A.

Snowmobiles? I live in So. California and would have to be up in the mountains a lot more to consider one of those. The last time it snowed around here was in the 1950's.

Yes so far the work looks good. Clean newer shop, people good to work with. Think they farmed out the paintless repair though.

I know fire spreads in the tree tops. I was refering to the standing dead and the fuel on the floor. What do you have against people gathering wood and putting it in a truck bed off of a limited access road? Some people in that area heat homes in the winter based on the gathered firewood, saving by not using gas or oil which is not renewable. That is just common environmental sense. Remember, nature does have a way or renewing the planet and has done that since long before man was here. How else would the planet have gotten from volcanic periods to periods of lush growth? You see, that is the reason the extream far to the left "...protect till the last ant.." attitude breaks down. Man, with his superior brain, can and does assist nature in management or the environment. Take the Buffalo Creek blaze a few years ago. Man did attempt to re-forest/grass areas to prevent runoff due to the fire. It made it a bit better than if nothing was done. Now when you deny access vs restrict access, man cannot get to areas when it is needed. Plus, seriously, look at the true reasons for the grabbing of land. You will find massive oil reserves that cannot be tapped resulting in being dependent on foreign oil to be a very major reason. Like that $2.00+ a gallon gas?

How does hunting contribute to the environment?
