Ginger: Can you send Me a copy at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ??? You are right... There has to be a "Balance" in leaving the earth for your kids, grand kids etc, vs being a wacko who usually just has a political agenda anyway. I pick up EVERY bag, can, trash of any kind whenever I'm on a lake, at the river etc etc... Ppl who just dump trash cause they either don't care, or are just too lazy make me sick, and if I see somebody dumping trash, I (politely) tell them to pick it up (Have had some get real ugly with Me LOL, but that's OK, somebody needs to tell the idiots to take care of the earth even if they don't...And, if they don't pick it up, I get their make and model, tag # etc and call the police and report it. Some places on the lakes and rivers here there is trash everywhere. Then, a few yrs back, mosquitoes in my area got REAL bad.. My land butts up against the Talladega Nat'l Forrest, and seems this guy dumped, get this 200 THOUSAND old tires off a cliff in the Forrest near here, and all that water in them just created havoc with the Mosquitoes that yr. They gave the guy a FINE and probation, and made him pay to have the tires removed. I'd have been the judge, he'd be in jail, if it were in my power...and I, like You AM,an environmentalist, I'm like you too, just not a wacko about it.... If one is NOT an "environmentalist" in that sense that you wish to leave this earth, which is the only one we have, in better shape than you found it, or try too...IMHO they have no business fishing, hunting, camping, etc etc , Thanks..... Chuck   ----- Original Message ----- From: Allen,Ginger M To: vfb@troutnet.com Sent: Monday, February 06, 2006 12:53 PM Subject: RE: [VFB] Ginger Allen/What is an Environmentalist Article I cannot post article since it is now the property of the magazine I will send it privately to you Ed.   Ginger M.

I wrote that article because certain people believe all environmentalists are the same, they are not. And some believe environmentalists should all be taken out and shot. In my humble opinion if you care about your fishing waters and want to see them kept healthy you are a type of environmentalist........ Glad you liked the article. Thanks :)
