I was never a PhD candidate, but dogs and chalk being related???
What evolutionary tree do they branch from?

As far as letting go of my "authority", that was something I gladly relinquished.

The dog owners were knowingly breaking the law, made obvious by their attempts to hide said dog inside a jacket, and their unwillingness to talk in a rational manner with other climbers.
This is known as "Failing the Attitude Test".
As a ranger I could have written several fines for dogs, but as all were willing to talk and leave the park I chose not to.

Judging from the comments and insults on this forum, the majority of Chockstoners have failed the attitude test, and this will have a far greater impact on whether we are ever denied access than "dibber dobbing".
