My dear Metalhead Mojo,
Thank you so much for answering the question I posted above. I suspected as much but wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt.
As for my prior knowledge of the NPCA, up until a little over a year ago I knew little about them. It was at that time I was contacted by the Northwest Director and asked to meet to discuss area fisheries issues as related to the OP park. Soon thereafter I was asked to be part of an advisory team regarding the same. I have since been in correspondence with NPCA on an almost weekly basis. As for my reasons for posting the report, I believe I stated those above. Since you are the one who likened them to PETA and ALF, I can only conclude that you are the one now clueless about the organization.
Just so we have all the cards on the table here, I admit I am not a big fan of GW. That is in spite of the fact I voted for him as the lesser of two perceived evils. Trust me, it gives me no pleasure to see him stumble and backtrack on campaign promises.
Because of my background, I judge administrations in two key areas: foreign policy and the environment. To my way of thinking, GW is 0 for 2. While I can understand where there is some room for debate regarding FP, the environmental record sadly speaks for itself.
