Should give them back to the native folks and let THEM decide which people THEY want to deal with, eh?

I think we've done enough damage to the people, species, and ecosystems..

I've written about it firsthand and that's another reason I want to get my Alaskan book to Randi, I think she'll appreciate it even more now :)

If you are in touch with her, let her know her pal Symbolman has a goodie for her - I think she'll remember me from my Takebackthemedia.com work, she's very sweetly helped push some of my Flash political work, like "An American Requiem - Bush Knew"..

So glad you enjoyed the cruise, I'm jealous, that's for sure! :)
