ken fortenberry initially said there wasn't a fawn lake in yellowstone,

indeed a fawn lake, he retreated to an acknowledgment of its existence,
but boldly asserted it is basically nothing more than a soggy weed-bed
at some point after ice-out. he basically calls me and 3 other
eyewitnesses liars about the lake and the fish in it. so... here's the
deal...

on any day to be set between july 9-17, 2005, i invite any fawn lake
non-believer or pessimist, including yellowstone kenny, to take a hike
with me to fawn lake for the purpose of catching the brook trout
resident in the lake. if it's a soggy weed bed, i'll walk/slog to its
center and allow photo proof of kenny's claim. likewise, if in fact
there is a fawn lake, each nonbeliever shall swim to its center so i can
take a picture.

Screw all this waterwalking, horses, and swimming stuff...if you can
even get close to what you are proposing, I'll supply a briefcase full
of cas...er, bright, shiny beads and let's set a date sometime in about
July, 1405. Then, we find us some Indians with a deed to
Manhat...actually, that's small thinking...let's find any Indian with a
deed - hell, the whole CUS (hey, if need be, I'll supply 2, even 3
briefcases full of wampum), and then, you can HAVE friggin' Fawn Lake,
whatever it is, as part of your 10%. And if there is no lake, how much
could it cost to put one in?
