When departing Hawaii for Alaska, can you bring home plants and fruits in your luggage?
Q. I understand that there are restrictions for bringing plants and fruit to the mainland, but what about direct flights to Alaska? Alaska doesn't have a multi-million dollar agricultural industry to protect, nor is it likely these pests will survive in this cold climate.

A. There is no fruit fly infestation in Hawaii--our fruit flies are non-reproducing. There are other bugs though and you generally can't take anything out of the state unless it has been cleared (pineapples and papayas are available at the airport for purchase). We don't allow similar items INTO Hawaii either.

What industries does texas and alaska have besides oil?
Q. I have seen posts claiming that alaska and texas have the highest per capita income and lowest taxes. If you take out the oil revenues those socialist states confiscate from the oil companies and all consumers who buy their gas, those sates are nothing but barren land. What industries does alaska and texas have that are man-made?
Asked by Protect America from Republicans - Wed May 27 23:44:42 2009 - - 3 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Oil is what they call a "common property resource". That means that it belongs to all of us, just like the salmon in the sea and the gold in the ground. Companies are given opportunities and often, incentives, to harvest these resources and to sell them for a profit. But part of the deal is that they have to pay the citizens who own the resource for the privilege of using resources that belong to us all. In addition to the oil industry, Alaska has strong timber, fishing, metal mining, and tourism industries. There are other minor industries, as well. No matter what the average income, there are people in both Alaska and Texas who are very poor. Manufacturing industry is prone to taxes as much as any other industry. As is agriculture, and… [cont.]

Is it illegal to move to Alaska and just build a cabin in the wilderness without any formal documentation?
Q. There was this guy named Richard Proenneke, in the late 1960's he moved to Alaska. He trekked into the wilderness miles away from civilization and built himself a log Cabin by hand. He lived there for 35 years in peace, alone, in the wilderness without having any interactions with civilization with the exception of a pilot who brought him supplies. I've been told that this is illegal by today's laws and regulations in Alaska - and that you can be fined big time if they catch you doing it. Does anyone know if this is true?

A. If the case you cite was on government land, it doesn't quite add up - homesteading was open in specific areas not just any unsettled area. But if it was private property, it makes sense. It is now illegal, but not because homesteading stopped long ago. Homesteading was a way to obtain government land of specifically offered tracts by "proving out" the land by building a dwelling and bringing in a crop. Rather, "adverse possession" was a way to recognize the "ground-truth" of homestead-like behavior by people who'd lived on land that wasn't theirs. The concept dates back to the middle ages in Europe. If they'd been there 5 years and never been asked to leave, they could take "adverse possession" of the land. Note that they couldn't… [cont.]

A. Foreign Countries, especially those that are competing with us directly, routinely challenge National Borders and Military Readiness. This was much more prevalent during the Cold War, but with Russia now heating up border conflicts in Georgia / South Ossetia, there will likely be renewed challenges. A recent border challenge was conducted by the Russians in August of this year along Alaskas coast. As Governor of Alaskas Guard Units, Coastal / Air / Infantry, Palin would be tested as Commander-In-Chief of those forces in tandem with Federal Military Units. I don't think Illinois has ever had to deal with that along the Canadian Border since it is essentially landlocked...and much less so as a Senator from a landlocked State.

What are the types of fruit that grow in Alaska and in rich soil of the glaziers?
Q. I was once watching TV and caught the tail end of a program that was about some kind of fruit that grows in Alaska and in rich soil of the glaziers. They were having a contest as who would be growing the largest of this fruit. I can't remember the name of the fruit! Was suppose to grow very large and it had a pointy skin around it. I went to my local grocery store and had asked about it and they haven't a clue. Josh, I think you hit on something in refards to watermelon. I don't remember it being that but could very well be a melon of some variety that grows up there? Tom

A. It sounds like some kind of squash. They would grow pretty large up there. I would say watermelon or pumpkin but that don't explain the pointy skin.

What is the effect of subisdance liveing on the alaska tundra?
Q. What is the effect of native subsidance on alaska tundra, past and present. All of the above.
Asked by alkorhol - Sat Jun 27 18:29:37 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I think you need to clarify your question. There is no word subsidance. Are you talking ground subsidence - which is the effect of melting and refreezing of the permafrost later under the Tundra? Or are you talking atmospheric subsidence, which is the sinking of large masses of air over the Tundra, resulting in dry and cold conditions with low precipitation? Or are you talking native subsistence - the effect of human hunter gatherers on the Tundra flora and fauna?

Do you consider Alaska and Hawaii to be more of a different country than a state?
Q. I was just watching a random video on youtube and a Hawaiian woman was saying that Hawaiians dislike when Americans from the mainland go to Hawaii and then say "we're going back to the USA" when they are leaving, because Hawaii is part of the USA too. So just made my curious, do you see Hawaii, and Alaska more like different countries than different states?

A. Well at one point they were actually different countries from the USA. Depending on whether you live on the mainland or not probably changes your opinion on this, as the two before me showed. I think because people see Hawaii and Alaska as being on separate islands, their cultures are more focused on as being different whilst the mainland has to try and incorporate so many states and their cultures into one history. So Hawaii's and Alaska's cultures are seen, especially by the tourist trades, as being more unique and almost like a completely different country. Don't mean to offend anyone with this by the way and i hope this answered your question!
