Those of us who visit parks and camp have noticed the change in park rangers in the last 20 years. Used to be the ranger was a big healthy man who would roll up and demand order and quiet at night. Then we started getting the urban student types and the pear-shaped ladies who wanted only to give lectures on environment and sustainability. Bureaucrats in uniform.

Had a park ranger come up to us at a campsite and start SCREAMING at us to move one of our cars. The guy got all beet red in the face and got in my friend's face, pointing his finger at his nose, "You! Will! Move! Right! Now!"

And no, this was not after a friendly warning or snide remark from us. This was our first encounter with "Obama's Forestry Service" in Coconino National Forest.
