    Default Trials of a greenie

    (Cliff) I am sure this has been on before but worth a revisit.


    > A woman from Perth , who was a tree hugger and a social engineer,
    > purchased a piece of timberland. There was a large tree on one of the
    > highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of the natural
    > splendour of her land so she started to climb the big tree. As she
    > neared the top she encountered a spotted owl that attacked her.
    >
    > In her haste to escape, the woman slid down the tree to the ground
    > and got many splinters in her crotch. In considerable pain, she
    > hurried to the nearest doctor. She told him she was an
    > environmentalist and avid greenie and how she came to get all the
    > splinters.
    >
    > The doctor listened to her story with great patience and then told her
    > to go into the examining room and he would see if he could help her.
    > She sat and waited three hours before the doctor reappeared.
    >
    > The angry woman demanded, "What took you so long?"
    >
    > He smiled and than told her, "Well, I had to get permits from the
    > Environmental Protection Agency, the Forestry Commission and the
    > Department of Land Management before I could remove old-growth
    > timber from a recreational area. I'm sorry, but they turned me down."

    If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck and looks like a duck then it's a friggin duck.
