Randy, I agree with you completly. Dams are a cheap and efficient way of creating electricity and other forms of generation could be even worse. But what frustrated me was that my city council wrote a letter that is so incredibly stupid . Dams do not help salmon, no way. And they wrote as the voice of Whatcom County. Although I said I agree with Dams as form of electric generation, if a better way was found I would support tearing them out immediately. Really If I had my way theyd be torn out right now, but I realise that it would not benefit anyone and possibly not even the salmon with how bad the runs have gotten.
