Actually, I meant that for everyone, not just Travis. Human beings are truly unique creatures on this planet...we are the only ones who seem absolutely determined to stop the cycles of extinction that were in motion long before we got here, and will be going on long after we leave, perhaps to enter some extraterrestrial collector's cabinet. Now, that is NOT to say we should promote, or take part in, acts of wanton destruction of ANY species just because of a so-what, or me-me-me attitude. We are all interelated to everything else and so the destruction of anything changes everything else in ways that we don't truly understand at this time. However, nothing is permanent, we can only do the best we can do and try not to feel guilty that we cannot stop the world from turning. Mankind is not an evil force from outside of the balance. Balance isn't balance without a little teetering. Patti ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
