Yikes. Reactions are due on this one......
See the Baltimore Sun, Saturday Nov. 13. Front Page, headline story, about a 
DNR created list of state park land suitable to sell for cash. 2 stories. 
- "Portions of parks slated for sale," by David Nitkin. 
- "List of disposable properties." 

A list created by DNR at the request of Governor Ehrlich. A portion of the 
chart in the newspaper, page A1, but not on-line includes this piece of land, 
for possible sale: "Hart, Miller and Pleasure Island State Park, 33 acres, 
Baltimore County."

Also note that the Sun Editorial page (A 15) specifies the "Question of the 
Month," inviting letters of 300 words or less by November 22 on this topic....
"Do you think the state should be making more of an effort and spending more 
money to protect and preserve open space?" Send letters to:
