Thanks Hilo...probably a wise choice

Great post Dan, what I am going for here is dialogue. I hope this has been something approaching that.

I've certainly learned a thing or two from this conversation, most importantly that I may have supported a statewide ban going in, now I definitely think this is a bad idea. I am still convinced that my home river could benefit substantially from just such a ban during the summer months.

Thanks again everyone for not straying too far down the path to flames...it's a much more effective dialogue without them.
