Do you mean the way Teddy Roosevelt and others "forced" Yellowstone and Yosemite National Parks on the "public", local-yokel objections notwithstanding?? Just think of the economic loss to the locals in these cases ... For example, some enterprising local businessman could have drained off Old Faithful years ago to start a coin-op laundry business, and Yosemite Valley could now be the heart of a great oil refinery! Remeber, it was the pinkos and commie-sympaths of the late 1800's - early 1900's that caused the horrible mess of the National Parks System in the first place! The mind boggles at the private property losses... ---------------------------------------------------------- Peter Feldmann * IC Consultants P.O.
