Thanks you guys:
I think we did have a Karma moment in that little bar, and I think Larry hangs out with the Commish for a reason, lots of business. In our county he said there are 200 staffers to do what Larry's firm does, but not in other counties. He said that this Commish would give people the form to get the process going, where in our county the whole thing is a big secret. This Commish is the Commish in the county where the state capitol is - and looks like he may be running for a US Senate seat coming up, he has been an elected official for 31 years. He is a tree hugger type, knows the Clean Water Act inside and out. Larry grew up in our town until age 5, and there is a middle school and park from property his grandfather donated. He wants to come an see that too. I think he thinks we were good sports and a lot of fun, yet serious about our cause at the same time. I do think we will get some real help.
