Dear Charles: As a member of "Tread Lightly", the Audobon Society, and a couple of others I can assure you that I am as REASONABLY concerned about the Great Outdoors as anyone else. However, I do not feel that shutting our Great National Parks off to the AMERICAN PUBLIC is the answer. I also believe that most of the easily accessible oil reserves are diminishing. It is my understanding that there are vast oil reserves up in Alaska. If it can be proven that technology has improved to the extent of safely extracting it I sure dont see why we shouldnt. As to raising Excise Taxes and the like that is EXACTLY what Gore intends to do, he also intends to CLOSE NATIONAL PARKS TO VEHICULAR TRAFFIC and close off many of the "Jeep" trails on public land to everyone. I frankly resent that. Take our organization for instance, we NOT ONLY go out of our way to LEAVE ONLY FOOTPRINTS (that is our Motto) but we CLEAN UP what others have dumped. To make a broad exclusion like that is OUTRAGEOUS. This is OUR LAND not GORES. Like it or not Gore is a FLAMING LIBERAL far worse in actuality then Clinton. JDN
ps: Just to give you an idea of the EXTREMES we go to we carry disposable plastic bags to put our TOILET PAPER in and bring back with us. As to gas mileage, according to the sticker on the windshield it said 16mpg City 19mpg Highway. Remember though, these Jeeps usually are only driven a few miles a year compared to a commuter vehicle.
