While not as amusing as the two who tried to urinate into the geyser a few years ago, this was still just as stupid.

      Probably not a bad idea. The publicity these bozos were getting might just encourage other nitwits to follow their lead. Sigh.

Quote

‎"At some point we must draw a line across the ground of our home and our being, drive a spear into the land and say to the bulldozers, earthmovers, government and corporations, “thus far and no further.” If we do not, we shall later feel, instead of pride, the regret of Thoreau, that good but overly-bookish man, who wrote, near the end of his life, “If I repent of anything it is likely to be my good behaviour."

~ Edward Abbey
