    Waste Mgt has something we don't have:
    Lobbyists
    They do something we don't:
    Contribute to political campaigns.

    If everyone ponied up enough, I'm pretty sure we could hunt the White House lawn and the Wheat Field at Gettysburg if we were so emboldened. Remember, it's a green world after all!

    Re: Cahokia Mounds

    Unless it was apart of some MAJOR HISTORICAL SUGNIFIGANCE, I see no point in not developing an area. Every section of the world holds some history, but to not utilize the land is just crazy. Imagine if Europe or the middle east was never built, It has roman and other cultures relics all over it. it does no body any good to let the land go farrow. If it is of significance, then excavate it and get it over with.
