The Dig/Morgan thing reminds me of a debate I attended several years ago. The Iowa State University chapter of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) had invited animal rights heavy hitter Wayne Pacelle to campus, where he would debate Richard Bishop, then Chief of Wildlife with the Iowa DNR. I think the HSUS folks thought Pacelle would have a friendly audience in his debate with a wildlife biologist. Instead, the word got out to local gun clubs, Pheasants Forever chapters, etc. Room full to overflowing with people wearing either camo or blaze orange. Result: The aninal rights types in attendance were very quiet. And Bishop cleaned Pacelle's clock, much as Dig did with Morgan.
