Dave: When you take out a dam, you build an estuary. That silt "belongs" in the river delta. Estuaries are the nurseries for forage fish (used to be called bait fish), which salmon feed on.
Dave: Dams have been removed in WA and OR and it had a strong positive effect on the fishery.
Dave: Google "elwha" river for articles.
Sungold: I have not followed this too much, why do they want to take out all those small dams?
SYSTEM: Please welcome Shastaminded who just joined the chat.
Sungold: What road is closed?
ProducerBadBob: HWY 273 NB @ Branstetter
Dave: LaMalfa is just a continuation of Herger. Herger was on the ways and means committee, making him one of the most powerful people in congress. He failed to "bring home the bacon" for his district. LaMalfa is doing the same.
Sungold: Thanks BB, missed that
Dave: LaMalfa should change his priorities or he should be defeated by someone who will bring federal spending to this district.
Dave: At least, he should push a bill for demonstration forest to take land away from the BLM and Forest service and let the county and one of the tribes manage the land.
Jarhead: Madoff had write ups where he would guarantee 14.5% returns...
Shastaminded: Madoff was a Ponzi masterman. Can't believe he sustained it that long. People should have been more skeptical.
Sungold: I agree, boggles my mind how some folks are simply willing to turn over big bucks to someone who promises a good return without even checking them out. My red lights always come on and I pay attention. They have never let me down.
Shastaminded: Sungold -is your handle based on the type of tomato (my favorite) or something else? Just curious...
Sungold: Sungold is my favorite cherry tomato, the first one I look for at the nursery every year, and it is the first one to get a tomato!
Shastaminded: Sungold - perfect!
