I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to call BS on your LNT practice. I was calling BS on the idea that somehow your LNT practices entitled you to side-step the permit quota system. And, if you are a certified LNT trainer, you should be the first person to appreciate that there is no such thing as truly LNT and the added impact of too many people is still an issue.
And, for what it's worth, I'd like to give a "SHOUT OUT" to takethisbread for his beautifully and eloquently stated contribution to this thread. Well said!
