Remember that “all right” and “alright” are two different things now. Both are used, but in different contexts.
Here in the U.S. (unlike some other countries), colored captions are used VERY rarely. Typically they’re only seen in credits. When you see colors or solid white blocks, it’s almost always a signal quality problem.
Never heard of it. Sounds fascinating!
I have a couple of his books in my bookstore (I actually have a Scats & Tracks shelf), but I haven’t read them yet.
I am of two minds on wolves.
On one hand, they are magnificent animals, and they were here in this ecosystem long before we were. I love actually being able to see them in the wild, and it makes me happy that the Yellowstone wolf reintroduction has taken us one step closer to where it used to be.
On the other hand, I understand how the ranchers and farmers feel. I will defend my livestock, pets, or family, even if it means shooting a magnificent apex predator.
If you want to understand both sides of the debate, pick up a copy of my friend Gary Ferguson’s book, Yellowstone Wolves: The First Year. He was involved in the reintroduction, and saw firsthand how people reacted to it.
Gary, my father had cattle – I can understand the farmer’s point of view when wolves are actually the problem. I don’t believe in helicopter hunting for sport and hides.

You may be thinking of already and all ready. There is no correct spelling yet except all right – at least not in American usage that old school English teachers will approve. I think this is part of both the Rosetta Stone and the Code of Hammurobi.
Sure. Go ahead. Aim for mediocrity.
Damn. You failed my ultimate captioning test. I am so over you.
I do not feel particularly enlightened by this revelation. However, I will take much delight in ordering some of your scat books so I can see the look on my sister-in-law’s face when I present them to my nieces.
