In other news:

I especially love this part:

"Underhill is just now finishing the park service's collation and
review of the 5,508 comments received during the public comment
period of the assessment process that ended Aug. 31.

"Of that number, about 170 are substantive, rather than emotional,
she said. Because of the volume of comments received, the assessment
