Dear HCN,
I just wanted to
congratulate you and Craig Childs on the wonderful article about
desert streams (HCN, 9/10/01: The rise and fall of a desert
stream). I thought that was the most inspirational and entertaining
reading that I have ever seen in HCN (which is
saying a lot, by the way). I enjoyed the story so much because it
was presented in a different format than most of your features. It
was a story that serves to remind the reader why we are all working
so hard to protect our natural environment. Instead of page after
page of political controversy, charges, counter-charges, and bleak
prognostications – this story simply and beautifully talked about
how precious and awe-inspiring the desert can be! It was the first
time in a long time that I read the feature story in one sitting. I
applaud you for printing it and wish to thank Craig Childs for
writing it. Please give us more of the same. Inspire
us!
