The young wanna-be gulag guard has no idea of what freedom is. By the time you have tramped enough trails and discovered enough wonders, you won't be quite as ready to take away the freedom to pick up a fossil and put it in your pocket. I can handle leaving vertebrates alone, archeological sites, etc. but when I find a nice brachiopod weathering out of the Percha Shale, the last thing I want is some federal employee telling me I must leave it there to be destroyed instead of adding it to my collection where I and my descendants could possibly appreciate. Enough laws already. Stand up for freedom and tell the gulag-ites to back off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
