Would a work of God still be beautiful if no one was allowed to behold it? That's what the envirowackos want to do. I discovered long ago that lush lawns were made to be walked on (feels sooooo good in bare feet!) rather than to be looked upon from afar.

The first thing Yosemite Valley needs is an army of arborists and gardeners equipped with chainsaws, stump-grinders, and drip torches. That place is an absolute mess, a firebomb waiting to explode.
