One more Loudoun County comment
For those who don't know, Loudoun County, VA has a Lyme's Disease epidemic. The large amount of development over the last 10 years has disrupted the deer population who carry the deer tick. The deer tick is a major carrier of Lyme's. As I drive around this county (where my parents' reside) and see all the large homes, I am amazed that some has no come up with a Lyme's clinic and begun major research on cures. So many lives in this county have been changed by this disease and those with poor insurance are not receiving the proper care. This is cureable disease, and maybe even preventable (with the correct research). Why not be proactive and nip this thing in the bud????

Yeah, let's nip it in the bud and stop encroaching so hard upon natural areas. Stop running the deer out of their natural habitats. Stop acting as if the earth was made for man and instead, act as if man was made for the earth. Silly me, what am I thinking.
