The real issue is if the enviros can come up with a reason to try to save the North Slope Mosquito. Have you got a good argument in favor?

Yup. You can paint yer house black, by putting on an undercoat of white and watching all the skeeters land.

2 backpackers were sleeping in their tent in Denali one night,when they got invaded by a couple of mosquitoes. One of the skeeters made the observation that it was a little crowded in the tent,and might it not be a good ideer to take the campers outside for more space. The other replied, "Are you kidding? If we do that, the big guys will take them away from us".

Ray,

The Caribou herd increase of 300% was a direct result of Exxon, Chevron, BP and Shell building and installing cardboard stand-ups just before the Alaskan biological surveys.

It is all illusion.
