That's a very interesting question. I think if there's a single species at risk, most of the time it points to there being something wrong with the habitat in which it lives. I think the idea of concentrating at the policy level on areas where there are many species at risk is not necessarily a bad idea because that suggests that those habitats are especially at risk themselves, but we do not see at this time, as I said in my opening statement, a practical way to do ecosystem-based conservation at the regulatory level. Certainly, you've heard lots of very important and very good examples of how planning can be done at the watershed level, but the backstop has to be single species/endangered species legislation.
