We admire TR. He created practical conservation & environmentalism in the US. He wanted to be sure to preserve places where you could shoot animals for trophies. Stick that in your PC. Copyright © 2005, Abby Sale - all rights reserved Pearl What are Happy's all about? See Notes and Index |

He actually gave permission for them to be named after him. --- Joe Fineman joe_f@verizon.net ||: It isn't the cough that carries you off -- it's the coffin they carry you off in. :|| |
