520 _a"They call themselves bubbleheads. With their bulbous helmets, puffy one-piece snowsuits and molded rubber boots, snowmobilers can resemble Teletubbies on winter vacation. Astride their machines, they have been variously accused of keeping schoolchildren awake at night, creating a public health hazard and molesting wildlife. Every year, a couple of hundred snowmobile drivers are arrested in the park for trespassing and hooliganism. But a rule to be adopted this month [March 2003] by the [George W.] Bush administration will affirm their right to be here. After decades of venomous debate, snowmobilers have won. As they lined up recently at an entrance to America's oldest national park, snowmobilers said they saw the policy as nothing less than a victory for democracy." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article debates the issue of whether or not snowmobilers should be allowed in Yellowstone National Park.
