This is a hobby. Should we really expect people to risk their lives?
If you don't like the operation simply don't work it. Just like emails
you don't like. Delete and move on. Nobody is forcing you to work
anything.

It's used to be about the challenge of getting to, setting up,

The non-permitting on environmental basis is BS for Desecheo/Navassa.
People land all the time on both. Nothing stopping them, certainly
not U.S. F&W.
Well, there's the cost. The amount spent on the last failed trip to
Bouvet was obscene, when RIB had a far greater chance of success, at
far less cost. As long as folks want to pay their own way to do the
roughing it thing, more power to them. But don't go begging when it
can be done well at far lower cost. Most of us have more important
ways to spend our savings.
