One point to Remember Ed, every time you turn your recorder on you make an
important record of the environment you are in. Ambient recordings over tim=
e
has saved many areas from being deforested or built on, unfortunately more
could be saved this way but you have important data that can be used for
future records.
Example, take a look at Bernie Krause, he was instrumental of making aware
the noise snow mobiles made in Yellowstone Park and got them removed for
congress because he had recorded before and after affects.
Every time you turn your recorder on you are making scientific data, an
important time capsule. who knows!

I would also be interested in a discussion of how nature recordings can
be used, beyond just playing them back for our own enjoyment.
