Another BUMP to save us all from the mean Greens.

I just did a show (public access) called "The Green Meanies", but it was about envy/jealousy. LOL!

Let our land alone!!

Hey, hedgetrimmer, I heard the BLM was backing off some of the cattle confiscations. I understand many agents will be serving in "homeland defense". Sounds like an improvement to me.

Hmmm.... Any mention of plans to declare ranching to be an act of terrorism? </semi-sarcasm>

Employing JohnHuang2's stolen list. There were duplicates in the list. I pulled as many as I could, appologies to those pinged twice. That's what happens when you use stolen material.

bump.

[Phil V.]

Thanks I'm #51!

BUMP!

[Snow Bunny]

That is ok I do not mind getting pinged twice. The way Jim and John have it set up now it is so great and so easy to answer pings. I love it.

WILL YOU KINDLY TAKE A LONG WALK OFF THE NEAREST SHORT PEIR. And take about half the state with you.

Just kidding. I'll sign I'll sign .... where's the pen?

[hedgetrimmer]

I dunno about the agents going off for homeland defense. Who'll they be plaguing next, do you suppose?

[anniegetyourgun]

Thanks, FF!

[Jolly Rodgers]

Thanks for the ping, but I beat you to it. :-)

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the heads up!

Now do another one on "Gang Green!" I'll take 1% royalties, thank you.

Very unusual.

You're an honest thief.

You deserve a BUMP today.

I was at a fundraiser tonight and was told that people in our Shasta Valley got letters offering them an option by a Conservancy for "fair market" value for their land. Typically, these conservancies then exchange the land with the feds for other land elsewhere. (I knew the feds wanted to put another National Wildlife Refuge in that Valley, but local organizations and the county loudly opposed it.)

These would all be "willing sellers", of course. No matter that they are "willing" because the proposed state coho listing is will be used as leverage to assert a minimum instream flow before their very old adjudicated water use rights. Land here is worthless without water. Realtors are already having to disclose the threat that water use rights will be useless.

This is a repeat of what happened in the Klamath Basin just northeat of here. It really, really makes me mad. They have already killed the timber and gold mining industries and we have no industry. Don't they realize that the ag infrastructure - businesses that serve ag- need a minimum customer base to remain viable? Don't they realize that ag money circulates through the small communities 6-7x ? Don't they realize that more than 65% of our County is already government "owned" and that taking land off the tax rolls will destroy income to the county to provide services to the retirees and few tourists who will remain?

Oh, and if they try to claim that the increased flows are needed to overcome temperature issues, a study was just done showing that increases in flows of several magnitudes made not one iota of difference in the temperatures. The summer streams were still too hot for fish. (Maybe that is why chinook abound and coho are "threatened." Chinook get out of the system in the spring and coho stick around.)
