Humorous

Montana and many people in Montana oppose dumping possibly contaminated water into our streams and that is getting the attention of Wyoming coal bed methane (CBM) producers. The solution? The Wyoming Governor wants to pipe the contaminated water to a different river that doesn't flow into Montana. They will just contaminate Nebraska's water instead. I just think this is funnier than hell. How short sited can you be to contaminate every body's water, whether it's Montana or Nebraska, for a little tax income.

One of my problems, so to speak, is that, in America, we tend to thing in relatively short-term. In the Middle East and Asia and other parts of the world, they think in terms of centuries or 500 years or 1,000 years. Jay Rockefeller

Geography Lesson
I see the state of Wyoming is again looking at building a pipeline to carry coalbed methane water to another water basin other than the Powder River basin. The drive to get this water out of the Powder River basin is that Montana is currently suing Wyomi

I wonder if this guy will get re-elected. Sounds like a total idiot to me.

Random Photo from The Gallery

This photo is from a while ago but is indicative of what is happening now again. The water is running high as the rest of the snow melts in the 50+ temperatures we are getting. You can see where the water was running and by the ice hung up in the tree how high it was earlier. This photo was taken by My Darling Wife. Taken 2/21/2007.
