You know what we used to call a marsh or wetland?
A SWAMP. A big stinking useless swamp.
You know what we used to do with Swamps?
DRAIN THEM, build DIKES, and then we built NEW ORLEANS.
Yeah well that didn't work out too good either. :mrgreen:
I'm sorry I just can't get too worked up about this. I've spent some time fracking around in swamps... they're intresting I guess, but they'll survive and regrow and who really cares...
They may not be nice vacation spots, but they are important ecologically and economically. I suggest you take a look at the EPA's site on wetlands if you are unaware of their function and their value
