You don't know how right you are. We must protect the ever endangered non-native salmon. Also, we have been trying to build another dam but we can't do that, it would destroy white water rafting don't you know. They are trying to increase the Folsom dam height and build up the levies around Sacramento for flood control but that will only make the problem worse and create new problems in the delta due to faster river flows but hey, they won't let that stop them.
We must protect the ever endangered non-native salmon. You know, here in the rest of the country, we have a term for unwanted non-native species - "pests". And they get "eliminated".
WTF sense does that make? If they're non-native, and they're interfering with human activity, just dynamite the d*mn river and skim 'em off with a net, and the heck with the ESA.
I guess I wouldn't fit in in California very well with an attitude like that, though ;)
