It is
an excellent resource, and a promise of good things to come from USGS!

But for how long? ... What's the latest on the GOP's feeble-brained plan

Even if the USGS ceases to exist someone will take care of that data, it
will not just disappear. They are not trying to do away with services,
just bodies and buearacracy. IMHO - I don't think it will happen, but
then they don't base their decisions on my thinking.
