Joseph, writing to Carl Roe and or Commissioner Isabella is sensless. Carl is a novice at this trade. Commissioner Isabella is obssesed with himself and being "Commandatore." As for your performance review, obviously it would have to be wonderful. I remember your performance at Haldaman Island a few years ago. Youeffort to assure the comfort of the Executive Director was commendable. Remember? I have no reason not
to believe that you have continued to excell in your appointed field.

Joseph, license sales for July-06 WERE DOWN 40 %. That's a fact. Hunters delayed purchasing their license in an effort to send the agency a message saying that they were much dissatisfied with the mismanagement of the deer program. Yes, hunters did finally buy their licenses, but many dropped out. It is my belief that next year will see another loss of hunters due to the mismanagement of the deer herd and Commissioner Hill's statement that the two most threatened programs are the Pheasant Program and new Game wardens to fill the many vacancies.

If you fellows drop the Pheasant Program will there still be a Youth Pheasant Hunt, or will you abandon the kids also for your incompetence in management of a once moderately successful agency? Remember, a couple of years ago you fellows were going to short sheet the Youth Pheasant hunt.

Then againperhaps your putting some time into lobbying DCNR for a position when they take ove. It would be a wise move.
