A woman from Los Angeles, who was a tree hugger and an
>>> anti-hunter,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 splendor 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 an
>>> anti-hunter 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 then told her, "Well, I had to get permits from the
>>> Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service and the Bureau of
>>> Land Management before I could remove old-growth timber from a
>>> recreational area. I'm sorry, but they turned me down." Very Happy
