This note is for the editor(s) of the Budd Lake in Harrison MI page:

The entry as written focuses heavily on VHS, which is a minor part of what makes up Budd Lake. The article should discuss the fish planted there by the DNR (thus reducing the worry someone might have about VHS), the scrupulously monitored water quality, the fact that a sewer system protects the lake from the runoff (and subsequent contamination) many lakes experience, etc. etc. etc. Some historical perspective might add interest to the article. Budd Lake played an important role in the lumber production of the 1800s and many colorful people once lived here. Using 50% of the space for something as negative as VHS, when it is entirely possible--and likely--most of the lakes in this area are similarly contaminated (but not tested because the DNR needs only one place for their various studies), is detrimental to the popularity of this important MI inland lake and to the people who live here.

I'd love to add to this page but my mind is boggled by the many rules and regulations. Please let me know how we might make this article more interesting, relevant, and evenhanded.

Thank you.
