That's just one reason why Michael J. Vandeman is the laughing stock
of the environmental movement, he chooses to fight a very minor
problem while real habitat crumbles around him.

At a rally this past Saturday, I mentioned his name to a few people
and while some never heard of him, a few people started to laugh and
comments of "nutcase" and "kook" were common. It was discussed how no
one took him seriously and when I mentioned I believed he did more to
hurt his cause than help it, all agreed.

A real problem that is being taken care of...
