dave and tracy barker are among the most respected members of the reptile community, and have been for a VERY long time (see why here)
well, they have recently published a few papers (the longest of which is a mere 8 pages, so don't be shy
)
i would encourage you all to read them, and be enlightened by their knowledge
the first is a paper on what's known as 'the precautionary principle,' (which is "philosophical position of proactive regulation on the
basis of uncertainty and prediction, and in the absence
of science,") and how it applies to S373:

next is a review of the most recent USGS report (the BIG one about the 'big 9'):
http://vpi.com/sites/vpi.com/files/R...Barker2010.pdf
and, finally, regarding USARK:
