What is Ted Turner Up To?

The AP is running a story about Ted Turner's increasingly large portfolio of Western ranching land. Neighbors are starting to wonder just what he has planned for all that land, over 2 million continuous acres. Some theories:

"Turner is trying to corner the land over the Ogallala Aquifer, the world's largest underground water system, to gain power in the water-starved West."

"He is scheming, perhaps with the United Nations, to create a vast wildlife refuge and turn it over to the federal government"

The man is solely responsible for subjecting us to the 24-hour news cycle (the guy is clearly evil). Whatever he is up to, it is well-worth keeping an eye on. Give us your best guess as to Ted's evil intentions in the comments.

I always thought he wanted to own the new beach-front property when the sea level rises...

Ted Turner actually does use his land as hunting grounds, and it is ridiculously expensive.
