Imagine America's Serengeti: A Proposal for Building the Largest Wildlife Reserve in the United States

Just a reminder, with some of these posts, I put them here for the sake of information.  It is not a wholesale endorsement of the political or philosophical views of those involved.

Thanks.

The Volcano in New Mexico; Capulin Cinder Cone

The Last Volcano on the East Coast; Mole Hill in Virginia

If time and circumstances permitted, I wish I could roam around Virginia and study these volcanoes.  (I wonder what might lurk beneath the soil and vegetative cover of the Blue Ridge Province in Georgia?  What is the source of the scattered diamonds found?)
