I can see disagreeing with the game commission on this issue, but what was the damage going to be if the USP won?

Gotta' be careful what you wish for. What happens if the PGC goes belly-up? Then the DCNR takes over control of all the SGL? Then what? Bird watching and bike trails. Jogging and site-seeing.

The PGC may not be perfect, but they beat the bunny huggers controling all the land.

Heck, Rendell would have put casinos all over the SGL.
