Ignorance is Bliss.....The same people would most likely be opposed to prescribed burning of mountain pine beetle killed timber to reduce fuel loading and future forest fire risk. Not to even mention slash and burn cutting to control pine beetle in the first place........Both activities are nessessary evils to protect the green pine forests people want to see. And both fire and pine beetle leave a ugly forest from an adverage persons view.

Now west nile well I can only see the day that there will be workmans comp cases from it in my line of work. I'm in areas so full of mosquitos that I don't even notice them biting anymore. THey get so thick somedays that you have 20-30 of em biting the back of your hand, deet makes them barely bareable. I actually think they like the stuff the way they still swarm us at work and we go through cans of the stuff a week and buy the most potent stuff we can find.
