To refer to it as such is to insult and ignore the heritage of all Although a knowledge of "proper" English is essential for survival in society, educational institutions must accept Ebonics as a legitimate form of communication.

Like many other wilderness advocates, however, he does not reason past the "feel good aspects of the issue in order to find the reason why we still do not have a Utah BLM wilderness bill after a dozen years of lobbying. You know, the original 1964 Wilderness Act only took eight years! The truth is, highly paid lawyers, lobbyists and organizers on both sides of die issue are guilty of fostering this continual conflict as a way to raise money for themselves and their organizations. It would have been easy to draw wilderness boundaries so as to protect the really outstanding areas on the Kaiparowits Plateau without having to compensate Andalcx Resources for its lost underground coal leases. well-finance- d church service projects.

There are no economic conflicts with wilderness that cannot be resolvcd-- if we ever decide to become interested in solutions instead of ideological posturing. We preservationists could have negotiated a wilderness bill for the Kaiparowits Plateau and Escalante regions long ago.
