Run-on sentence/aversion to periods alert!

It'd be nice if life were this charmed - to have the ability to be so worried about things of so little substance.

Just so long as the environmentalists who want to "save the Grand Canyon" make sure it meets the standards set in the Handicapped Accessibility Law we'll all be OK.

Guess they keep forgetting that part, eh?!

You need to learn some manners, not to mention posting protocol.

Getting a life wouldn't be a bad idea either....oh, and also a clue about what constitutes "Breaking News".

Sorry for the rudeness. - I did not mean to post this as Breaking News. Just in a hurry, did you even read the Denver Post Article? It did not sound like you had from your worthless post, you just wanted to take a shot at me.

I did read the blog - but I didn't pay any attention to who wrote it. Honestly, I had one helluva time getting past the first sentence/paragraph. I chalked it up to some nut out on a ledge somewhere ranting. It read like someone who is seriously advocating the erecting of more dams in the Grand Canyon area.

No, I didn't get to the Denver Post article.

Most articles posted on here are not actually written BY the poster, so grammatical slams, ridiculing of the content, etc. usually aren't seen by the actual author.

No offense intended to the poster - I was making fun of the author! Know what I mean? :-)

You gotta have pretty thick skin on this site sometimes - especially if you're gonna post. (Replying is dangerous enough!)
