    Tariffs and Potential Inflation

    What's the falsehood here Sytes? His direct words to Bartiromo were "maybe it's going to be more than that" when asked about 60% tariffs. You thinking folks are just too hung up on that and it's unlikely that he'll implement many 60% tariffs?

    Pink camo, #dadbodhunter, and a whole lotta stupid!

    I did see a guy with a 5.7 on the Tundra forum with similar symptoms to you swap in an ecm and solve the problem. But I vote 3rd gen. TRD Off-road comes with a rear locker. Get the PVM and ventilated seats. You'll thank me later.

    Binos that work with glasses

    Give the Leupold BX4 a look. They were a big improvement over my vortex diamondbacks. I bet @schmalts can still get a good deal on those.

    Binos that work with glasses

    That was the recommendation of our Ex- Portland friend. If you're a good candidate for lasik it's probably the simplest solution.

    Binos that work with glasses

    For a quick scan I have no trouble with my Meoptas with glasses on and the eye cups down. For a legitimate glassing session I take my glasses off and extend the eye cups. My prescription is fairly modest though.

    Make the case for federalizing game species

    Maybe... I feel like you depopulate Montana and Wyoming in your hypothetical though 🤣

    Make the case for federalizing game species

    This is the most well articulated point I've seen on the topic. You're talking about equatability here, which is a noble pursuit, but I think it's impossible to discuss as a hypothetical here without accounting for all of the other trade offs that so commonly come up. Those trade offs are the...

    Oh, the irony!

    I feel like a few folks are playing devils advocate for a fringe group here. Why are we entertaining hypotheticals for something that only folks like Mike Lee perceive as a problem? Sure, many people back east may not use their federal public lands, but many do. Perhaps not a majority, but...

    Oh, the irony!

    Nothing like having your honeyhole turned into an Idaho moonscape huh? The same argument could be made for every government program. I don't have kids so why am I paying for schools? Because there is likely some societal value there. I'm sure there are a couple million antiwar Americans that...

    Oh, the irony!

    And the states are going to run into all the same litigation that the feds currently see, without the budget to stand up in court to the same degree. I think the notion that state lands get away with more timber harvest has a lot to do with it being small potatoes compared to the USFSof BLM in...

    Oh, the irony!

    Plenty of opportunity if you move past glory tags. I can put you onto otc deer hunts in thousands of acres of public land. It won't be as good of hunting as eastern Montana in 2001, but hardly anything is anymore. It will get you out into some beautiful country after some cool critters though...

    Oh, the irony!

    Weyerhauser is permit only, and those permits aren't so dissimilar from drawing your hated non resident tags. Green diamond thankfully still allows some public access, but stakeholders subsidize that. Most of the small timber companies are zero access. All of my childhood hunting ground was...

    Oh, the irony!

    There is no access to the vast majority of private lands in in Southern oregon. I don't believe you're genuinely interested in understanding an alternative perspective. ✌️

    Oh, the irony!

    But history doesn't support that in the west. History suggests most western states are more interested in selling off their lands, and historical state management of wildlife has been pretty successful. Can't imagine most cattle grazers would rather pay their respective state fee vs the feds...

    Oh, the irony!

    Do states pay counties PILT? I don't think I've ever heard that addressed in these discussions. In a hypothetical where federal public land is divested to the states will the county then lose out on that PILT money? I think multiple western states still have language that state land has to be...

    Food for thought

    I rejected the study design of the rash cream before I even knew what the video was about. It's impossible to determine if the cream worked without a placebo control :poop:

    Phishing attempts…..show us what they have tried

    After publishing a one year frost damage study in MDPI I get a ton of these. This one had my names backwards, like they would show in a citation. They regularly refer to me as Dr... Occasionally I get solicitations to publish in the the such and such journal of gynecology and obstetrics on...

    West coast salmon recovery

    Oregon has a super weak stream protection buffer for timber harvest. The streams look terrible in the coast range, particularly on the private timber property. We also have a weaksauce stumpage tax and a defacto "independent" lobbying arm funded by state dollars which leads to some remarkable...

    Study: Hunters Die After Consuming CWD-Infected Venison

    There is a fairly simple treatment for salmonella or listeria. That's part of the story with cwd. Nothing to be done, and it's always more spooky when it impacts your brain.
