Great story!

That sort of thing might be a tough sell with today's anti-environmentalists.

Hey Sticks!!
How's it going buddy???
I have not seen ya for almost a year and I thought I would say Hello!!!
So hello!!!
That a cool story and I am sure that everyone who has ever been there can thank Justice William O. Douglas for his efforts as well as all those who continue to protect and maintain the RRG. Long may it stand!!
See ya later.
