butterflies!? | 11:36 p.m. Feb. 18, 2008

there are a thousand miles that this butterfly inhabits and your triing to close down the only ten miles that people want to go to have fun, go protect some other part, these butterflies don't only congragate on sand mountain. go protect the other 990 miles of butterfly habitat and leave sand mountain alone. and by the way, those metal stakes are very dangerous, i hope you get sued when somebody gets impaled.
