Forest Plan Involves Timber Co. Contracts Sat Mar 8, 8:53 AM ET By MATTHEW DALY, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - The Bush administration is confident it has found a novel, inexpensive way to clear overgrown forests and prevent catastrophic wildfires.

Pennsylvania offers a lesson in what happens when taxpayers cave in to teacher unions and raise pay and school spending to astronomical levels. It is a lesson that is seldom told in the mainstream press. (My sister-in-law is a 28-year public school teacher in Pennsylvania.)
