| The only endangered species on this planet are people with common sense. |
I know a town that is trying to get a railway station. Everytime they get ready to begin construction at a chosen site, someone finds an endangered blue-spotted slamader living there. Then everything stops, time passes, money is spent, a new site is chosen, they get ready and -- someone finds an endangered blue-spotted salamander. It's happened three times.
Ya can't put a shovel down without hitting one of these things. Either they are not that endangered, or else someone is planting them on the site.
Why not plant the whole development in meadowfoam, after the houses go up. If the plants do well there, they won't be "endangered" anymore.
Seems to me that if it can be transplanted once, it, and other sprouts, can be transplanted in the dead of night again.
Have you ever tried meadowfoam honey? Evidently we have enough meadowfoam flowers here in Southern Oregon to make hundreds of pounds of honey. It tastes like vanilla honey. Yumm!!
This story was Rush Limbaughs morning update this morning.
This is a good reason why the law has got to be changed. Stopping construction of a major development on private property ought to be prohibited unless fair compensation is paid by the government.
Plant the meadowfoam on the POS Bob Evans property. Evans will no longer be able to cut the lawn. Plant an endangered mouse in Phil Northen--the biology professor at Sonoma State University--his pantry/basement and he will have to vacate his residence. It will serve the @ssclowns right to pull this crap. No doubt, though, these LDBs will find a way to justify their own exclusion from the laws they created.
Time for some Round-Up, I'd guess...

Fixed.
I may be confusing that with the Spotted Owl or the Snail Darter. These manufactured environmental "crises" all melt into one after a while ...
Um...not that I ever did that.
This is a tactic that environmentalists have been using for decades, usually it is a fish or frog. In our local OHV area it was an indian artifact. The archeological tactic is only temporary until they get a grant and do a five year study
Evans and other opponents seized on the discovery of meadowfoam, a federally protected species, in hopes that the developer would be required to scale back plans for 145 houses and apartments.

Happens all the time - - you're out walking your dog and voila!, what should appear before your eyes but a flower that you recognize as being a rare, federally protected species.
And whaddayknow? - - you happen to make your amazing discovery on a parcel of land which is about to be developed. On top of all that, you happen to be an environmental activist, so naturally you immediately bring your discovery to the attention of the authorities in the hope that the development project can be killed.
"It was the bad luck of the developer that it popped up," Evans said.
Right.
Coincidences like this happen all the time.
Sure they do.
