[TN-Bird] Re: bad idea to go see ivory billed?

Oh, I can't help but worry about a gazillion birders charging into the
area. Sure we all want to see them, but....

A very bad idea, indeed. 

Frankly, I think it's irresponsible to post "driving directions" and very 
specific information about this place. I can't think of a better way to insure 
catastrophe than having hundreds (thousands?) of people wandering around in 
search of these birds.

I would encourage people to not go since there's no legitimate reason for 
anyone other than a select group of scientists to be in the area right now.
