I also was just looking at the population figures and Ft. Myers is a smaller city than Lawton O.K. and Wichita Falls T.X. by where I live. Ft. Myers has a population of 48,000 while the other two cities, Lawton is 90,000 and the Falls is over 100,000.

So, Ft. Myers is not a very big radio market and as such not many businesses in that area.

You sure don't want to upset your advertisers in this way in a market such as this. Hopefully the station will change it's way and realize the mistakes they're making.

You sure don't want to end up losing advertisers in such a small radio market.
regards.

Sounds to me like a compromise should be reached. He should sell the land to the state for fair market value, with a stipulation that he can continue to live on it and have it undisturbed for the remainder of his life. The project can wait a decade or two, and the disabled son will need the trust fund after his father's gone.

The state has done a great job mucking up the Everglades, any attempt to fix it should be welcome.

Please tell me what you know about how to "fix it".

First of all, the flooding of the 60,000 acres is not restoring anything. Unless you call nutrient and contaminant rich water (poison to the Everglades) coming from caved in canals a "fix". Besides, Jesse being there will not have any effect on the green psychos plans to flood everything out of existence anyway. They just want him gone ....period.

Not for anything, but that 65,000 acres is home to panther, bear, deer, gopher tortoises, and a whole host of "endangered" flora and fauna. Why is it if I want to build on an acre lot around here I have to go through thousands of dollars of studies and mitigation (as if every one of these "endangered" animals are holy, and me building a house will destroy all of them) yet they want to flood the habitat of entire populations of these same creatures wholesale.

CERP (if you even know what that is) was started by the sickees in the Clinton administration and was literally written by sugar growers, powerful enviros and "large land owners". It's been a pathetic farce from the beginning driven by money and politics. The sad thing is that they're using 8 billion dollars of our money (that we don't have) to do this.

Yours is the typical blockhead worldview. "They told me they're saving the environment so it must be true". No facts or science, you just know what you've been told. That's why we have policy that puts turtles and frogs before children, too many morons who believe everything they're told.

Keep sucking up all that green gook you've been fed. You don't know the first thing about .....the first thing. You obviously know nothing about the the Everglades, the situation in the South Estates or Florida politics.

If someone offered me $1M, I would throw the kids out and they could have everything.

Sounds to me like a compromise should be reached.

Jesse has no problem with letting them go ahead with their false "restoration".

That said, there is no compromising with these psycho idiots. They started in the South Estates saying they only wanted 7,000 acres and only from "willing sellers." Now they have nearly the entire 60,000 are talking about eminent domain and are already starting to go after the North Estates.

I find it interesting that all this "restoration" always seems to take place in areas where the people living there can't put up a fight against these financially loaded interests who want them gone. Florda is loaded with wealthy neighborhoods, but for some odd reason we never see any restoration taking place there.

The people here have compromised and compromised and effen compromised. Where there was the pitter patter of little feet, we now have weeds. They're science is junk, even they admit it might not work. The objective science says it's an utter sham.

They're playing God and building their tower of babel, and s**ting on the surrounding community in the process. They will fail, one way or another.

Geesh d00d, you're getting your teeth kicked in on this one, I think you and CJ managed to get yourselves on about 50 s**t lists.

I usually can tolerate and rap with you as you're pretty measured most of the time, but go back and read some of what you wrote. Keep it up and you'll be in the Dane, Roscoe, Kevin Curry, CJ crew in no time. I don't think you wanna be there, having no credibility and all your posts being suspect.

"You mean the Libertarian "theory" of private property?"

You mean the CONSTITUTIONAL theory of private property??? Some people around here are lucky enough to have never been threated with losing their home. Keep up the attitude, Pappy and you may just live long enough to see it happen to you.

I already got a reply from Gov. Bush. You might be surprised who actually gives a tinker's damn about other people.

If you aren't pissing someone off at some point, then you aren't logged in.

It's impossible to have an opinion here and not make someone, somewhere, angry in the process.

seven year old son......looks like he's got some life in him yet.

The old man is 67, and the son is 7? How old is the mother, 25 maybe?
