I can't find my favorite conservationist thread of all-time. It involves two seals rescued from the Exxon Valdez oil spill by conservationists. The seals were rehabilitated over a period of severa months at considerable expense. When the time came for their re-release, the conservationists decided to make the occasion a political event. They staged a ceremony, complete with pomp and circumstance. The media, the high school band, and speeches from liberal politicians were all on the agenda. After the ceremony, the animals were released, where they were immediately and unceremoniously consumed by a pod of orcas within view of the dock.

What a sad story... sad in that these type of people often have the ability to be in charge over far more serious matters.

It probably isn't a thread. That was a story related by Rush on his show, and was one of the funniest bits he ever did.

That sounds like something from a South Park episode!

I thought that story Rush told was about Sea Otters
