Did you come up with that all by yourself? That may apply to SOME of the Extremeists but I can guarrantee you there are a lot more than you think and you would have little chance seperating them from everyone else... As for "bloddy hating the environmentalist" then you "bloody hate" about half the people here. We are "environmentalist" more in many ways than some of these card-carrying people that call themselves environmentalists. A sizeable percentage sign up because they're bored stiff or want to belong to something "chic".

Now those that are not amongst our ranks and that of the Rec angler is the "Extremist" environmental person.

Notaro, it's too easy to fall into the trap of a "they are all a bunch of whackos" type mentality and then we would be doing a real disservice to our cause - in this case preventing MPAs from closing areas to people that have tried to improve the conditions and had no measurable part in the decline of those areas for the reasons they are in decline...
