Fabs truer words were never spoken....it has been a cluster you know what here with the gators, now you know thats what I am into but God only knows what they have done with the other wildlife...I can tell you this though...we had some fricken little bird called the scrub jay or some such thing...ok make a long story short ..Florida decided to make it endangered....they red-tagged peoples property who they say "pairs were nesting on" do you have any idea what red-tagging property does to the property owner? Anyway you could have the tag lifted if you paid to buy equilavant acreage in a state park!!!!Are you walkin with me...so lets say in 1974 you bought 10 acres of land in Florida...you built on 5 and now your lookin to sell that 5 for retirement, extra income , take your choice... but the state red tagged it. you cant sell it or deed it you cant do crap on it, because this scrubjay has been noted as nestin there...to lift the tag, you needed to buy 5 acres from the state . at a huge dollar by the way....then once you did that, you could go in and torch your property for all the state cared...it was blackmail pure and simple,,,,
