Conservation isn't a tag line...
Sorry, Agust, but in this case pouring $ into TU and being "part of the solution" does not appear to be the same thing. In fact, from what I am hearing, membership dollars can't be used for staffing this campaign. So what exactly ARE they used for? Geez. Keep in mind TU takes in $4 million in member dues alone.
TU should be on top of this, not because someone complains - member or not - but because its their freaking mission!!!! Did we forget that?
Your quip about the universe just convinces me that there are no answers to the questions I asked and never have been.
I sympathize with the local TU folks who are throwing spitballs at tanks. However, that needs to change. Heavy artillery is needed and groups like TU and the Delaware Riverkeeper should provide it.
We have had two staff hired under grants for the Delaware, both moved on. National has been looking for funding to hire a new person without success. NJ Council and NY Council kicked in for funding of the last two and will again, but we also have limited funding, and in NJ putting our funds into the Musky. Ross you are a dedicated conseervation volunteer, we all know that, but it seems that your primary goal in this thread is to beat up on TU.
