There is one little piece of information left out of the Smokey Mt. maturation of its forest. The Smokies were Clear Cut during the early part of the 1900's and it wasn't until the 20's and 30's did they let the growth begin again. There is a maturation natural process going on in the Smokies right now. I worked with the NPS at the Smokies and the Wildlife Department at the UTK. One can make both arguments for what is going on there but the data can be skewed both ways.

Agreed, Data can be skewed but
Thoughtful people will have civilized dialog
about problems held in common
