Bear Islander has earn my respect with this and I take him at his word. I'm actually sorry I called him out in my last post, I should not have gotten personal.
I always take resposibility for my actions, how have I ducked them? I came on this forum and admitted what I did.

I'm sorry, but in our society we are governed by laws. My actions were acceptable because they were legal and I did no damage. I was at least 500 feet from shore before I made a wake. How big is my wake at 500 feet? Could you even measure it's effect versus the damage caused by flooding and wind driven waves.
I have focused on damage to human structures mainly because the jury is still out on environmental issues. Many environmentalist will argue that although floods cause short term damage, in the long run they are good for the ecosystem. Why do you think they are always trying to get dams removed.
