U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals nominee William G. Myers III debated environmental attorney Laird Lucas on the topic of the "Legal Frameworks for Public Lands Ranching" at the RangeNet 2002 Conference in Boise.
An audio transcript of that debate is available online at http://rangewatch.org/library/rn2002/03legalframe.rm (RealAudio, 85 minutes, 7mb).
A video of their opening presentations is available online at http://rangewatch.org/library/owpl/episode03-bb.rm (Realvideo, 29 minutes, 48mb).
Higher quality versions of both are available on CD/DVD (see http://rangenet.org/order/index.html ).
Feel free to forward.

William G. Myers III is George W. Bush's choice for a lifetime
position on the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. That court's
jurisdiction covers three-quarters of all federal lands, in nine
Western states where contentious battles rage over energy, mining,
timber and grazing.
Unlike most judicial nominees, Myers has never been a judge. Instead, his qualifications include decades as a paid lobbyist and lawyer to the coal and cattle industries.
