Ryan, you should call yourself The Voice of Reason. I laud you for your post and outlook on the whole situation. I had pontificated a further response to Katrinia's answers from a past post until now. The real facts and unvarnished truths will eventually come to light. This forum has been a remarkable place to educate one's self on the issues concerning the springs. It is unfortunate that personal vendettas have worked their way in also. I will not continue in that direction. As Mike's friend I will inform everyone that he will not contribute his views on the controversies here as he feels that this is not the proper place. He invites anyone and everyone to drop by his ranch and ask any questions. If he gets a little animated at times please realize that he has been the brunt of many attacks by DCHS Inc and many of their friends. I find him to be a reasonable and friendly man, as have many others in this forum. I wish the new group of concerned hotspringers much success in their endevors and applaud them for wanting to keep the personal fights out of it. And finally, I appologize to this forum for thinking that it was part of the DCHS Inc site. Any further posts by me are in doubt as I have said what I have to say. Keep up the good work.
