SOLD OUT

“Paradise Ranch” (by Alan Weisman, March 21), about the Nature Conservancy’s sale of the Gray Ranch, was intensely disturbing. Granted, the new owners may have the best of intentions, but the economics of desert cattle-ranching will almost certainly force them to rape the land or sell it to developers within a very few years. The Nature Conservancy has betrayed those of us who have been members and significant donors. We have been literally sold out.
