Recently, I gave a little plug to the Nature Conservancy as a "libertarian
way" to maintain the environment.  A reader sent me a private note that led
me to do some research on the methods of the group.  It turns out that they
don't always hold onto the land they buy.  They sell $millions of land to
governments and other groups thus invalidating my case.  Admittedly, some of
the references I found have a political axe to grind (like
http://www.undueinfluence.com/nature_conservancy.htm) but their own web site
does confirm some of the information I found.  If anyone knows of another
group who sticks to the notion that I thought the Conservancy had, I would
be grateful to hear of it.
