At least we're out there, no matter what we're doing - even if, god forbid, you're surfing the net on your cell phone.

Sure, it is a gamble that the wind change will give you away but everything in life we do is a gamble, and if we little humans think that we can really effect change (including global warming) to the point of total outcome? Then we little humans are sorely mistaken! ;-) Besides, you never know what fun things can happen when you inadvertently scare a critter out of hiding when the wind suddenly changes directions on you. Because remember, that wind changed just as suddenly on that critter down there as well! Gary,
