Not just Fred, but also his badazz Mgr., Steve Grende. I won't burden you with the WYGFD laws pertaining to Hunter Harassment (which, so far, Grende has not been held accountable), but I'm shamelessly going to cut and paste a couple of things that I found on another site. I'd think that Eshelman's pennies to the acre Fed land "leases" should be in jeopardy... Will look forward to your comments>>>>
