He is well known in other groups as a longstanding redneck troll and wannbe member of "Fat Ugly Americans for a Dead Planet". He is apparently a Canuk. No, Americans see everything in black and white. So, if you hate environmentalists, you must be for environmental exploitation. Personally? I'd like to see every 4x4 off roader, powerboat driver, shot at close range. There is a difference between hating leftwing reactionary enviro- KOOKS and having disdain for nature. There endeth the lesson. |

It reminds me of the YUPPIE, latte-sipping urban envirokooks in California who banned mountain bikes from wilderness areas for "degrading to the environment" while they rode 1500lb horses all over the same place. What's wrong with being reminded of the importance for being careful? Reminded? Or strong-armed and excluded by hypocritical scum? |

Those guys are running things now. At the more extreme end, people like Bill McKibben, author of "The End of Nature," are demanding a moratorium on ALL wildlife photography. Rachel Carson wrote "Silent Spring" about DDT's effects on bird eggs. So they banned DDT. Result? 40 million Africans dead of malaria. Environmentalists, the hardcore, are human-hating, anarchist vermin. |

While it's true that mountain bikes are much less damaging to the trails and wildlife than horses (and often less damaging than hikers), I don't see what that has to do with: 'The welfare of the subject is more important than your photography.' Because like all envirokooks, they are hugely prone to doomsaying and over- reaction. Photography is not going to cause the extinction or even marginal decline of birds. There are plenty of worse things, like Third World population explosions, power wind mills, etc. 2 years ago they banned rock climbing on some bluffs near Niagara Falls because they said it could harm lichen on the rocks. They had no proof, no data, they just decided to ban it. Even though lichen and climbers had existed for at least 40 years.. |

Humans have some built-in instinct to seek the highest place available. Why do you think humans can actually breathe fro below sea level, and up to 17 or 18,000 feet above? Did we evolve that high? Another small crack in the evolution theory. |

What's wrong with being reminded of the importance for being careful? Have you ever stepped on a bug? Yup, just before I yanked the legs off and ate it. And realizing his hypocrisy, he reverts to the absurd. Predictable. When you've graduated from survival class, get back to me, assuming you survived. Besides, the exhaust from mountain bikes is quite different from that of horses, and a horse fart disturbs the neighborhood a lot less. And you know this. Mountain bikes are not powered, genius. Down here they are. Your collective ignorance is not an excuse: www.mountainbike.com I've already explained it's just a difference of terminology, but you seem to believe your terminology is more correct than mine. Sad. So, tell me Don, this reference of yours is expected to make me sound ignorant? I suspect the true purpose of it is to make yourself feel superior. It's okay if you do, just don't make the mistake of expecting me to give a ****. ****ing loon. -- jer email reply - I am not a 'ten' |

OK, so YOU explain how evolution accounts for the ability of a species that 'evolved' on the African plains can easily survive at high altitudes, and in extreme cold. Go ahead, I'm waiting. |
