BiographyHi - I'm a 57 year-old man. Married with two grown children. Employed by a major airline as an aircraft maintenance technician. Spent 21 years in the USAF, and I'm a VietNam vet. My son is on active duty in the USAF. My daughter works for a law firm in California.
I love the National Parks, and I feel they are a legacy for our grandchildren's grandchildren. I enjoy hiking, camping, and sailing. I'm an animal lover. My wife and I share our home with two dogs and two parrots.
I am a member of the NRA. So is my Dad, my brother, and my son.
I like to think that I have an open mind.

If you met me on the trail, you'd wouldn't know whether I was armed or not. After we parted ways, you'd probably think to yourself, "What a nice man". If you only knew. I feel sorry for you and your irrational fears. Good ...

- 7/10/2008 10:47 am - Comment Period Reopens on Whether National Park Visitors Can Arm Themselves : I just read a page-full of the "new" comments. They're pretty much like the previous 60 days of comments. Almost all of them SUPPORT the proposed rule change allowing concealed-carry. I read one that OPPOSED the change: they were sure that their vacation would be ruined if they knew people ...
- 7/05/2008 10:27 am - Comment Period for Proposed Gun Rule Change in National Parks Extended 30 Days : Kurt - you're right on about the snowmobile issue and the comments. Almost makes you wonder why they bother to solicit comments. They just do what they want anyway. Whatever happened to "We the people"?
- 7/04/2008 8:29 pm - Comment Period for Proposed Gun Rule Change in National Parks Extended 30 Days : Had a little time on my hands and I was curious so I did another unscientific sampling. I selected pages at random: 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 25, 26, 39, 44, and 57. I read the comments on each of those pages. There should have been 100 comments but I ...
- 7/04/2008 7:20 pm - Comment Period for Proposed Gun Rule Change in National Parks Extended 30 Days : Thanks for the information, I'll pass it on. Has anyone done any kind of tally on the comments? The last time I did one, I picked 11 pages at random. I recorded the number of those in FAVOR versus those OPPOSED on each of those pages. There were 77 that ...
