Randy, would it be possible to create a sticky for the Public Land Issues topic where we could quickly access links to pertinent information about this issue? I've been having some very productive discussions the past several days with local individuals who are behind the curve in this conversation and want to educate themselves.

A sticky with links to sources of information about this topic that we can go back to would be incredible helpful. Links like the charts showing the percentage of state lands still retained by the states since they were granted admittance into the union, rebuttals of commons transfer arguments with facts and statistics, etc. would help me out a lot. As it is now, when I want to remember info that we discuss in a thread to link to a discussion I'm having on Facebook or email, it takes me a long time to search the forums and find the exact place it was posted in a thread.


Perhaps, we can keep this thread going for a while and a lot of you can contribute info and links they think are especially helpful and informative along with a brief summary of what you are posting. We can have the discussion for a while and then Randy or an administrator can choose the most helpful and turn them into a sticky.


I'm looking for links such as "Western States' Attorney Generals cast doubt on Utah land push" - http://bigstory.ap.org/article/e8a2...k-attorneys-general-cast-doubt-utah-land-push

quote-"The seemingly impassible mountain of problems facing public lands management today may seem
impossible. However, the resources of the State of Wyoming would be better utilized being directed
at fixing the problems and working to encourage the development of a system more attentive and
responsive to the voice of local communities instead of directing resources towards an effort that
would ultimately merely pass on the myriad of problems that exist today to the state."
