"I believe they want to save the environment. The fact of the matter is none of the results of everything they do doesn't help the environment. Like you said, that guy just donated all these money to environmental causes. That money is going to go so these people can strap themselves to something on a highway instead of planting trees. All righty, welcome back. Mike Lomas, Go Legal Financial guys. I should have asked you. I guess I'm hosting. I just opened my mouth. Not that there's like a host here because we don't take commercial breaks, but we are the financial guys. It's a place where money meets politics and thanks for tuning in to a... I love these podcasts, by the way, between morning mics, podcasts, and radio shows. We're doing what we love to do, which is really cool. And I love the 45 minutes and out, 40 minutes and out, no commercial breaks. It's pretty good. It's nice. So I don't know where to start. Western New York here. Glenn, you're down in our Florida office now, but we'll be back here shortly. I'm in our Western New York office. I'll be down to Florida shortly, so back and forth. But Florida is all about hurricane, hurricane, hurricane. I love these environmentalists. So they're like, oh, by the way, every hurricane is a once in a lifetime storm. It's like, okay, I think they go the last... This has never happened before. Well, coming into like the Gainesville area, well, actually it was 170 years ago. Now, hmm, what did we not have 170 years ago? Oh yeah, the freaking automobile, right? Like they want to blame all this on climate change, but it happened 170 years ago. Because it's hitting that part. It's now global warming. And it's so stupid, right? I remember when we were talking to Congressman Chris Collins on the air one time and we were talking about, he was talking about Marco Island, houses on Marco Island. Just bought there. He just bought a house there and he bought there because there was no way that anything, though, the hurricane had never, ever, ever... Because of the way that... Let me back you up for one second. No, no, no, no, no. Let me back you up for one second. As we were doing that, because you and I, we have offices down in Palm Beach, the storm was heading right for Palm Beach. And he said to us, he said, that's exactly why I bought a Marco Island. When I kid you not, we got off the air two hours later. The storm had gone south around the tip of Florida and back up in Marco Island. It literally did. It jogged left and it curled around and it came right back and whacked Marco Island and went right across Naples and right across Lake Okeechobee. I know God's got much bigger things to do than listen to the financial guys at a Saturday afternoon. However, however, it was sort of weird that at 301, as soon as we got off, that storm turned. Really, you guys, karma right there. But the point is that storms, they do whatever. They hit different parts. It's not because of global warming. It's just stupid. Honest to God, what a dumb statement to make. We've been warm, cold, ice ages. We've had hurricanes that have hit the panhandle, Louisiana, Texas, because it just hasn't hit that particular exact spot of the coastline. Are you out of your mind? It has. 170 years ago. That's what's funny about it. 170 years ago it did. So really it did. But not within the last, you know, not since 1974 when they started to keep statistics on it. It's just stupid. These people are lunatics. By the way, we were talking for the show, you know, Patagonia, the guy who created the clothing brand Dives, right, left almost all of his fortune to environmental groups. That and along with Hollywood are the people that are funding these whack jobs that are putting other people at risk. Let me ask you this, though. Everyone's seen this video by now, right? The tribal police, they literally, they take the truck. I love it. They just run over the thing. They clear the road. They arrest everybody. We're not in violence. We're not in violence. Here's the thing, though. Let me ask you this. These are, are these, are these all beta males in that line? Because I got to be honest, if I'm anywhere near visibility of the front, I'm probably going to walk up there after a while, I'm going to probably pull off the road and maybe take a walk or drive down the shoulder. If I can see what's going on and I realize there's a protest, I'm rallying like, you know, half dozen, dozen other rednecks in that line. How long would it take to walk down the cars and grab, you know, nine, 10 other, you know, guys and just say, okay, we're moving. And when they say they're nonviolent, well, you're, you're holding up a, you're holding up miles and miles of people in the desert, right? I mean, look at, I drove, I drove through the desert a few weeks ago. It was a hundred degrees. If that 110 actually during the day, if I'm stuck on that road and there's nothing else, by the way, I can't like turn my car off and just sit there without air. I've got two kids in the car, right? There's people that have animals, pets in the car, right? So you turn that car off, you don't get air conditioning, you die. If you run the car, you eventually run out of fuel. I mean, they are a real threat. They are a real danger and they may not be violent, but it doesn't mean they're not putting people at risk. I tell you how many people could die at 110 degrees. I tell you what, you can be as nonviolent as you want while I'm kicking your head in to get you off the road. I gotta be honest. In the middle of the desert, you blocked the road in the middle of the desert. I'm finding as many of the rednecks as possible and you're getting an ass whooping. I gotta be honest. You're getting out of the road. They needed that. I'll give you 10 seconds to get out of the road or you're getting an ass kicking. Fortunately, it was on tribal land as we were talking before because had it not been, you'll get some liberal piece of shit prosecutor that will now charge the police officer instead of saying thank you for saving the lives of all these people that could have burned to death in their cars. That's the game now, right? That's why George Soros funded all these, right? You remember those folks in St. Louis, the attorneys who protected their home with an AR-15 and a pistol. Now, I don't agree with the woman waving it around like a pointer. That was clearly... But she didn't have the proper skills to let it go. That was her property. You can wave the damn thing any way she wants. Get off her goddamn land. She had the right to defend it. Get off her land. Get off her land. And they prosecuted her. They went after her, right? So all these people in these states, if you're a non-friendly state like New York, you have to really think twice about defending yourself. Think about this. I know. Somebody breaks into your home at two o'clock in the morning. Think about this for a second. You're by yourself in your home. You don't have your kids. You don't have your wife. You have nothing to worry about to protect. You have an opportunity to go out the back door and get out of your home. Now, however, in New York State, you have every right to defend your home. Is it worth it? I mean, think about that for a second. I'm going to stop and think about that when I'm in New York now. Do I just leave the... I'm going to leave the house and let my guest just break into my home because otherwise I'm going to get prosecuted. Or at least I'm going to get investigated. What if you can't leave? What if you can't leave? What if they have you at gunpoint? Well, then I'm defending myself. Well, then I'm defending myself for sure. I mean, but that's ridiculous. It's to the point where it's just so asinine. I mean, the old saying, rather judged by 12 than carried by six, right? But still, you shouldn't have to think like that. In Florida, you don't have to think like that. In Florida, you can be in your car and have somebody threatening you in your car and defend yourself in your car. I.E. Florida's at a 50-year low when it comes to crime, 90-year low in Miami. Because the criminals know it. The criminals know it, right? They know. By the way, it doesn't make it. It's perfect. But I'll tell you what, it's a hell of a lot better. You know, look at... We own a financial company. When your crimes are up 50% in one state and down 50% in another state, those are pretty telling... That's a pretty telling tale, right? Like, you know what? Like when we pick stocks, we look at numbers and like, gosh, boy, those numbers are really good. Well, I think let's do more of that, right? Let's maybe buy some of that company, right? I mean, just sad where we are in the states like New York and California. How do you not look at the crime? By the way, I said to the group the other day, it was Chicago. There was a bunch of reporters who actually got mugged as they were doing their online report. The report. It's crazy. And like you said... I did a charity golf tournament with a client on Monday. He was part of our team. A police officer. And he said, he goes, Mikey, he goes, it's absolutely disgusting to see these same people that we arrest time and time and time again. One of the illegal aliens who was out on a bail to rob some cars. Illegal. In the country, illegal. He's out on cashless bail. A joke. A joke. But yeah, here we are now in the national media for the rest of the week and the weekend we'll focus on this tragic shooting in Jacksonville, right? This is one tragic shooting amongst many, many, many tragic shootings. The manifesto will be released right away, I'm sure, right? He's already is a white supremacist, 21 year old young kid, and you'll say, well, we should not have the guns. Okay. So he, instead of walking with an AR, he could have walked in with a pistol, done the exact same thing. But here's the thing that at some point, are we, I mean, are we actually going to have an honest conversation about what is radicalizing these kids? You know, whether it's on the right or the left, on either side. The mental illness problems, which we continue to say something, but we refuse to look at any of that, right? You've got a huge homeless problem in this country. Part of it is caused by the welfare. Part of it is caused by the massive amounts of mental illness that's out there. And instead of getting these people in the right spots, getting them medicated, you know, getting them in the right direction, we just let them back out on the streets because boy, they can't have that on their record. If they have mental illness on the record, they'll never recover. Well, guess what? If they have mental illness, they'll never recover. Right. Well, this kid, like this kid was the Asian one that's mostly white. Did you see that? That was a different one. Yeah. Yeah. The mostly white Asian. That was another, another classic headline from CNN. Right. The mostly white Asian. No, this one was the Jacksonville kid, a 21 year old and tragic. Yeah, sure. So anyway, so the, but the thing, they're all, everyone's out there immediately. It's like, we've got to do something about the systemic racism in the country.

"By trucks. And so when I got there the next morning, I was welcomed by a guy from the bank, and I was at and he showed me on the map. He was so proud. He was like the Chamber of Commerce president. And he took me over to the map, and he goes, I want you to see where you are here. And he said, right here we are in and he goes, you're about an hour and a half from Miami. You're an hour from the Gulf Coast at an hour from the Atlantic coast. And I'm me being from Chicago. I look at him and I go, now, mind you before I got to his office that morning, I had tried to find the closest Starbucks. 43 miles away, but I figured at least it would still be hot when I got there. But you were working. You were minutes away from Lake okeechobee. I wasn't very diplomatic. When he pointed out where he was geographically and I was thinking to myself, okay, you're an hour from each coast, you're two hours from Miami and you're here. And I think you need some money for gas to get out of here. Anywhere I spent a week there, which seemed like a hundred months. And then at the end of the trip, he said, well, we really enjoyed having you here. And he goes, I hope if you and your family have vacation plans, come back for the sugar chain festival. Oh, that's great. That's on my bucket list if I live to be 200. Yeah, well, it's only about an hour from West Palm Beach, actually, and it's not far from the booing of trouble is a bell glade, which is a migrant camp last time I checked. So anyway, on a serious note, you and John are doing well, you're in our thoughts. Thank you. Your mantra one day at a time. My wife has survived non Hodgkin's lymphoma and a stem cell transplant. My daughter has survived leukemia twice and two strokes, and so we know the power of one day at a time and power prayer. Absolutely. And thank you during our first early we'll miss you for the week that you'll be away, but I hope you get settled in a new place and I'll be back on the phone bothering you. I'm counting on it. My only concern is that I don't have a stroke in the interim and I'm next to John, you know? I gotta calm down, but I will. And we'll talk, I think there's a game march 6th though, it'll be an abbreviated Monday night trivia, but I think we'll definitely be on for a couple hours. We'll stay safe. All right, thanks a lot. Thanks for calling. Thanks. Appreciate it. All right. Yes. And I absolutely appreciate the prayers because I believe strongly in the power of power of prayer. So 888-876-5593, let's see, going to area 8 one 5, so Elgin to Rockford area. Welcome to WGN radio, who are you, where are you? Hi, while this is Bruce and I would. Hey, Bruce, okay. Yeah, it's a Rockford area, but I'm quite aware of that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm pulling for you and John too. Thank you. So glad he's doing good. And I'm praying for you to have the strength to do with you guys. Yeah. Yeah, this was such a shock. And it's good because I really didn't know where I was going to find the broadband. So I will. But how the hell I'll get this moved, I have no idea. So you just do it like the guy said before one day at a time. Well, that's it. That's it. But when I realized I've got four days total, I kind of have to put myself in warp drive to say there are some things you don't need to do now, Raleigh, do something else, you know, that kind of stuff. Exactly. Yeah. I want to talk to you about Corvettes. You said you had 66. 6 yes and a 75. Oh, I had a 67. 78. And 79, but did you have the hard top? Yes. Yes. Yeah. In both air did you have air? Oh, I had air conditioning, and I got when I used it, I got about two miles to the gallon. Oh yeah, I had a 76 67 four 27. Oh yeah. But it was a convertible. And when I didn't have air, and when I would have the hard top, I had both tops on, man, you couldn't expand it to be in that car. Oh, I know, I know. Just hot as hell. I had the four 27 two, and then later, the 75, it was three 50 with three 50 displacement, the L 82 engine option. Oh, wow, I only had the L 48. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you that L 82 stranded me everywhere. That's how I got to see all of America because I was stuck in it. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, but that's 66 was wonderful. I want to talk about your 6 one talk about your 67 of course because that was the classic year because it was before the body style change in 68. But yeah, 67. You still had the sideways radio that I had to. Who the hell came up with that? I don't know, I put an a on that time in the back with a boom box and remote control that I could hold between the seats and work the stereo with my remote control. Yeah. But so what color? What color was it? Sunfire yellow with the black stinger hook. Oh, man. Mine was the British racing green. Oh, wow. I destroyed it. I was out one night. I had already kept blue to trans, put into trans in it. I had built the engine. And I was in second gear. I hear a bang and I looked in the mirror and I had green in it for you coming out both sides. You know, that sounds just like a Corvette. It really does. Well, yeah. And then I called, there was no cell phones back then. So I walked home about a mile and I called a tow truck and I said, hey, my car was stuck out. It was like a Sunday Night. And you said, well, come and get it in the morning. I said, no, you don't understand. It's a 67 big block and sitting out in the middle of the country. You said, okay, I'll meet you there in the house. Yeah, exactly. So that thing won't be there in the morning. No. No. Although, with that 75, there was a time when I was kind of hoping someone would steal it. Well, my 78 someone did steal it. Well, that was the pace. That was the pace car. Did you have the pace car colors for the Indy 500? No, it was a white one, but it was the place kind of year, but it wasn't the pace car edition, but she took it in part to that the school where she worked and she went out to lunch, it was gone. And I was writing about time her father passed away, so she was out of state

"WGN Brady, I'm Raleigh James, unscreened radio, and it turns out this big our last night of unscreened radio because I was hoping there would be a show tomorrow night but there won't. You see what happened was. As you know, where I was on the hunt for broadband, all this week, frantically, because I was moving into a place with broadband a month from now. Well, it turned out I found out today that I can move into it. Next, Tuesday. Yeah, the only problem is I have not begun to pack anything, and I've got to get back to the valley because before they can release John, I have to go through training on how to help him as he recovers from the stroke. And so suddenly I've got four days to do, I don't know about 40 days worth of things. And so I realized earlier in the evening, I'm going to have to have to beg out of tomorrow night's show. But Monday, march 6th, which is a week from Monday, I expect I will not only be back, but ensconced in the new location, and I expect John will be screening. So there, you might not be walking at this point, but it'll be screening. And he may be walking. He said, we'll see. All right, so I'm pretty excited about that. But how I'll get through the next few days, I don't know. Yeah, I'm doing a lot of turning it over to the lord right about now. All right, I'm going to get to your calls and I'll put a couple people on hold, but I was listening to the news I had not heard about what happened in Orlando today and yeah, that was a knee jerk. Reaction. And so I decided, well, I'd go to Fox 35 and see the timeline. And it's a 19 year old, as you heard on the news, who is accused of shooting and killing a 20 year old woman in Pine Hills, which is a section of Orlando. And then later, a journalist and from spectrum 13 and a 9 year old girl. And injuring another journalist and the girl's mother, critically, as far as echoes. And the 19 year old suspect has now been detained. Keith Melvin Moses. So here's a timeline. 11 in the morning, a woman in her 20s was shot on highly arrive and died at the scene. The Orange County deputies confirmed that the homicide detectives responded to the scene conducted a follow-up collected evidence and developed good leads on the suspect. Four O 5 deputies received 9-1-1 calls reporting two shootings on highly a drive and one in nearby Harrington. Okay, on highly a drive two spectrum 13 journalists a reporter and a photographer was shot. Now, of course, they were there because they were covering the earlier shooting. And of course, you know, if it bleeds it leads. And so they're there and the suspect open fires kills the reporter and critically injures the cameraman. All right, so down the street on Harrington, which is right nearby, a 9 year old girl is killed and her mother is critically injured. And that's what they're. The sheriff for Orange County, which is Orlando, hold to press conference at about 7 15 this evening. Eastern Time. And he explains the situation, all right? And obviously names the suspect, which we just have and the pending charges that he probably will face. But when I read this next part, this is where I hit the control alternate delete. Yeah, I'm blinking at the blue screen of death as I read. We have detained the person believed to be responsible for the murder this morning as well as just shooting this afternoon. He is being formally charged for the murder, and we expect additional charges. And okay, so far so good, no problem. I'm not going crazy. The suspect is not saying much. And so the sheriff is talking a little bit more. And he then says, all right, a very good description was given out. Deputies located him in the exact same clothes. He was wearing during the shootings. And once they did detain him, homicide detectives who were familiar with him from the previous cases said, yep, that's our same guy from the earlier homicide. Now, wait a minute. If they knew this was the guy from the earlier homicide, how is it that he was walking around free for enough hours to shoot the journalist who killed a journalist and shoot the cameramen and killed a 9 year old girl. So obviously, as usual, I'm missing some salient facts here. So I'm putting everybody on hold and I'll stop yammering and we'll see what's on your mind. And I don't know who it is, but called during the news, so we'll see if see if he or she cared to wait for 12 minutes as we say, welcome to WGN radio, who are you and where are you? Hey, Robert, it's bob from Arlington Heights. We haven't talked for a while, but how are you? Good. I called a couple times last night. I had to get off after buying a half hour each time. Sorry about it. Never got back to you, but I'm glad to hear that you're moving forward and John is recovering, you're in our thoughts daily. Thank you. One of us calling about last night is it's a lighter side of Florida. You had a gentleman on who had spent a lot of time driving up and down the state of Florida. Yes. And because you had a background in Florida, I wanted to share a brief story about an experience I had in Florida ten years ago. I was working I was working for the FDIC during the banking crisis. And so I had to go to the sprawling metropolis of cluster. Oh. I have never been there before. So I flew into Miami and then drove on a Sunday Night up the only sign of life I saw between the Miami airport when I finally found clueless in the hotel. Motel I was going to be in the only sign of life I saw in the two hours I was driving was alligator remnants on the road that had been hit by trucks. And so when I got there the next morning, I was welcomed by a guy from the bank and I was at and he showed me on the map. He was so proud. He was like the Chamber of Commerce president, and he took me over to the map, and he goes, I want you to see where you are here. And he said, right here we are inclusive and he goes, you're about an hour and a half from Miami, you're an hour from the Gulf Coast at an hour from the Atlantic coast. And I'm me being from Chicago. I look at him and I go, now, mind you before I got to his office that morning, I had tried to find the closest Starbucks. 43 miles away, but I figured at least it would still be hot when I got there. Well, you were smaller. You were minutes away from Lake okeechobee. I wasn't very diplomatic. When he pointed out where he was geographically and I was thinking to myself, okay, you're an hour from each coast, you're two hours from Miami and your ear. And I'm thinking, do you need some money for gas to get out of here? Anywhere I spent a week there, which seemed like a lot of the month. And then at the end of the trip, he said, well, we really enjoyed having you here. And he goes, I hope if you and your family have vacation plans, come back for the sugar chain festival. Oh, that's great. That's on my bucket list if I lived to be 200. Yeah, well, it's only about an hour from West Palm Beach, actually, and it's not far from the booing of tropolis of bell glade, which is a migrant camp last time I checked. So anyway, on a serious note, you and John are doing well, you're in our thoughts. Thank you. Your mantra one day at a time. My wife has survived non Hodgkin's lymphoma and a stem cell transplant. My daughter has survived leukemia twice and two strokes. And so we know the power of one day at a time and the power of prayer. Absolutely. And thank you and our first alien will miss you for the week that you'll be away, but I hope you get settled in a new place and I'll be back on the phone bothering you. I'm counting on it. My only concern is that I don't have a stroke in the interim and I'm next to John, you know? I gotta calm down, but I will. And we'll talk. I

"As you get north of Tampa and working on up toward Perry and Schieffelin Cedar key in those areas along the west coast of Florida. But you know, this is turning out as a tropical storm. It looks like just a normal tropical storm that we've seen in years past. And you know nothing really screaming anything in and out of the ordinary at this point, and believe it or not. The wind in southwest Florida, Marco up to Naples and Cape Coral. They're still relatively light only 5 to 15 MPH right now, but they're just getting inundated with a lot of heavy rain at this point. Richard, that is an interesting and get overview all the way around us. Kind of taking a look at where the outer consistent bands are This thing you know, it's like Isla Morada is pretty much it you had mentioned long key around the Layton where they were getting the winds in the thirties. What do you anticipate for us in South Florida? The rest of the way. Are we going to end up feeling much from this? Probably not the way things are looking right now. We may get, you know, a couple of shower bands that worked through that could bring us some wind gusts up to tropical Storm force, you know? But right now it's looking like the worst of the weather is going to be out over the keys over Monroe, mainland Monroe County of the into southwestern Florida. You know, one of the things that we have to keep an eye on two is Usually with these type of tropical systems. We can't rule out the risk of a waterspout er to developing in the offshore coastal waters. So that's another thing that we're going to be watching as we move through the afternoon, so there is a chance that we could see a waterspout or two across portions of South Florida as we move on through the rest of the day, But you know, right now it looks like Western date and into Monroe. That's where the bulk of the rain shower activity is, and I really just don't see a whole lot more in the way of rain coming in. The Miami Dade at this point, because as the storm is getting further north, much of the moisture is being pulled along with it. So we're just seeing the outer fringes of the system at this point. That's good information. You mentioned the waterspouts. I wanted to ask you a tornadic risk. So we did have a tornado warning for western Broward and Palm Beach County four o'clock hour this morning. I don't know if there was ever confirmed Tornado associated with that. Do we have risk of tornadoes throughout the course of today. We do it. We are tornado threat here in South Florida is not zero, especially for Palm Beach, Broward and Miami Dade. The numbers are a little bit higher as you move on over into southwest Florida. Monroe call Europe into Henry County, and there's once you get north of Lake Okeechobee. The numbers are a lot higher up there. So I think if the if there's any chance that we're going to see a tornado, the better numbers are going to be up across central Florida. As we get further along into the afternoon in the evening, we get a little bit more daytime heating going, Uh, and the risk kind of goes up as we head through the afternoon, especially for areas up along the I four quarter. And it's a good update. Richard. I appreciate you taking the time to share with us. Thank you. It's Richard Llewellyn from the Weather Channel.

"After the horrific parkland florida's school shooting in february of two thousand eighteen marjory stoneman douglas became a household name for all the wrong reasons but let's take a look today at the woman for whom the school was named marjory stoneman douglas undertook a legendary in dairy fifty year crusade to save the florida everglades born in minneapolis in eighteen ninety and educated at wellesley college in massachusetts douglas moved to south florida in nineteen fifteen fifteen after a brief and disastrous marriage to join her father who was editor and founder of the newspaper that would become the miami herald she was an accomplished journalist short story writer writer and an outspoken advocate for women's suffrage anti-poverty campaigns and ultimately because it would make her famous. The everglades douglas's nineteen forty seven owed into those wetlands. The everglades river of grass was published the same year that president harry s truman dedicated the everglades national park long before environmental scientists fully understood the fragility and interconnectedness of the everglades ecosystem douglas railed against efforts by the us army corps of engineers to drain divert parts of the sprawling wetlands to to make room for agricultural and urban development. These efforts continue today. The school was dedicated in nineteen ninety when douglas was one hundred years old and still going strong along with her book. Douglas provided a new way of understanding the one point five million acre wetlands preserve rather than seeing it as merely a sprawling swamp douglas rightly described the everglades massive slow moving river of shallow water draining north to south from lake okeechobee down through the sawgrass prairies and emptying into the florida florida bay in moving pros douglas road of the hundreds of species of birds fish and flora that thrived in the precariously balanced ecosystem of the everglades the largest subtropical wilderness in the united states. She rightly recognized that this area was largely responsible for the rainfall in south florida are book begins. There are no oh other everglades in the world they are. They've always been one of the unique regions of the earth remote. Never wholly known nothing anywhere else is like them a tireless and often intimidating advocate. She founded the organization friends of the everglades at age seventy nine to fight a proposed jet port in the middle of the wetlands lends. The airport plan was scrapped. Douglas spent the rest of her life. Defending the everglades jon rothschild edited her nineteen eighty-seven autobiography voice of the river described her in the book's introduction as she appeared at a public meeting in everglades city in nineteen seventy-three. Mrs douglas was half the size of her fellow. Speakers were huge dark glasses along with the huge floppy hat that made her look like scarlet o'hara's played by eager stravinsky when she spoke everybody's stop slapping mosquitoes and more or or less came to order. Her voice had sobering effect of a one room schoolmarm. 's the tone itself seemed tame. The rowdiest of the local stone crabbers plus the developers and the lawyers on both besides there are two seasons in the everglades. The dry winter and the monsoon summer and scientists now understand that seasonal fluctuations in water levels are key to maintaining the delicate equilibrium between competing plant and animal species but that balanced spend dangerously disturbed decades of habitat loss and short-sighted water-management tactics tactics. The river of grass is no longer a free flowing sheet of water but sliced up and boxed in by dams and dikes creating floods in some areas and drought in others congress passed the comprehensive everglades restoration plan back in the year two thousand but the funds to implement the plan never secured in the meantime lake shelby obi historically the water source that fed southward flow of the river of grass has become hopelessly polluted largely by agricultural runoff in two thousand sixteen high levels of phosphorus is a nitrogen in the lake caused a toxic algae bloom.
