Harvard has published quite a few papers debunking all that hype, but the state still uses it to "educate" the public that the public land MUST be managed, or heaven forbid it will dissolve and blow away. The recent FOREST Resouce Management Plans have a lot of that hooplah in them.

It used to be that the wood industry would say, "we must cut the timber for a growing economy". Now, they wised up and tell people, "we must cut the timber because doing so is fabulous ecological work- and in fact, the very best way to do it is to clearcut it- this species must be clearcut". --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Eastern Native Tree Society http://www.nativetreesociety.org You are subscribed to the Google Groups "ENTSTrees" group.
