    Occupy Skagit, on steroids.

    Spawning surveys have been done on the Nooksack up to at least 5-6 years ago. I know because I have asked the area bio. I do question their accuracy, but he should basically know if the population in increasing, decreasing or remaining steady. The Nooksack has a remarkably consistent number of...

    Fitness/Health/Exercise Stuff with Evan

    Actual question. I detest working out. I have run, lifted weights etc. I find it very hard to do. I just don't do it. What I do love to do is play basketball. However, cramps/ tight muscles have kept me from playing for almost 10 years. I cramp and will pull a muscle. My big fear is pulling a...

    Fitness/Health/Exercise Stuff with Evan

    Well done. This is impressive and motivating. Motivated by a gallbladder that was "filled with stones", I lost 20+ lbs by dieting. Like you, it has been nothing too crazy. I have just decided to make vegetables the main portion of what is on my dish. I have also reduced (almost illiminated) my...

    Occupy Skagit, on steroids.

    Curt spoke about the spring king monitoring vs. spring steelhead monitoring issue at the one NOF meeting I attended. I believe he asked for data as to the number of anglers who participatedin the two fisheries and possibly the cost of monitoring for the two fisheries. I thought that it was an...

    SFR onX mapping

    Round earth, flat peice of paper is how I explain it to people. I am not sure if that is the actual reason for any of the errors but people seem to accept it. I have noticed that the program that I use got a lot better a couple of years ago. I have heard that the data tends to get better over...

    SFR onX mapping

    OnX is not as accurate as a survey. I work with a GIS program dailey. None are perfect or completely accurate.

    Evan, I have recently lost 25 pounds. It feels great. However, my wife says that cocaine is a bad way to lose weight. What is your advice?

    Dismantling of the USFS

    He likely borrowed against his wealth in 24 and 25 rather than make any cash income. In doing so, he would avoid taxes since borrowed money is not income. He will pay interest but that rate is far below his tax rate. That's my understanding of one of the most common ways that the exceptionally...

    Dismantling of the USFS

    The wastewater treatment plant was owned by Bristol Meyers Squib. I worked at it as a contract operator. No tax dollars were used that I know of. They tried to turn high strength waste from penicilian production into energy via anaerobic digesters. It failed and it smelled really bad when it...

    Dismantling of the USFS

    You really have nothing to back up your productivity assertion. It's odd to even guess. The other thing is, with regards to productivity what is the measure? It's a lot easier to measure these sorts of things in a private sector job where you make or sell widgets. Often the goals in public...

    Dismantling of the USFS

    Given that the forest service represents about 5-6% of the USDA's budget which represents about 3% of the federal budget, I doubt that you will find a whole lot of success going after the redundency you believe to be a big problem. Our federal budget issue has very little to do with the number...

    Dismantling of the USFS

    Median factors in a bunch of zeos in a row repesenting people who are not working. Average does the same. Average takes into account the unequal representation at the top better it seems. It also seems to me that median fully employeed would be the stat to use. As an aside, I have always...

    Dismantling of the USFS

    I agree with your sentiment. There should be a public benefit to open space, agricultural or timber taxation. Like you, I prefer it to be in the form of access. Tree farm owners pay an excise tax when they harvest the trees. They should also have a harvest management plan to qualify for them...

    Mike Lee. When you have Randy Newberg ( https://randynewberg.com/ ) opposed to a pro-gun rights senator I think that everyone should look and see why proior to forming an opinion on the matter. Although the article is written in a sensationalist way. It seems to me that it probably has it...
