Lauging Bear, My donation to Gail concerning the Quite Claim Deed did not buy me a share of anything. I will own nothing, it was a donation. I have explained why I donated this money three times here at the forum. The explanation I gave, three times, is the truth, if you don't want to except what I have said, thats your choice. Hopefully, if what Gail purchased is shown to be legal in a court, then perhaps the Bowen Ranch will cease to be a place of profits and criminal activity, and become something that truly " all " hotsprings visitors can enjoy. Also, where you come up with this bit that my donation to Gail for the purpose of helping her buy the Bowen Ranch Legally, means that I support " armed conflict " in the area, is beyond me. That assumption simply makes no sense at all.
