By Emily Gurnon -- Bee Correspondent - (Published May 5, 2002) More than two years after anti-logging protester Julia "Butterfly" Hill descended from her redwood tree home, the Pacific Lumber Co. said it is gearing up for a new set of clashes around its plans to log in certain areas of Humboldt County.

I know! Seeing as they are probably lacking somewhat parental guidance and bonding, I think someone should read to them. We should take advantage of a captive audience to teach them how they are being used by the same globalists that they so greatly fear and despise.
Put together a 24-hour tag-team of readers, preferably small forest landowners, so that we can make the best use of everybody's time (and make certain that they can't get fresh batteries). Get a bull-horn, a cooler full of beer and sandwiches, and some light reading material:
Undue Influence, by Ron Arnold
Set Up and Sold Out: Find Out What Green Really Means, by Holly Swanson
The Skeptical Environmentalist, by Bjorn Lomborg
Natural Process: That Environmental Laws May Serve the Laws of Nature, by, uh, that would be me.
You get the idea. Read to them, educate them, patiently and with friendly (but firm) compassion, 24 hours a day. Offer them the beer and sandwiches if they come down. Think of the photo-op!
Yep- sense and common sense.
They seem to believe that trees live forever ( well, duh! ) and that "old growth" forests stood untouched & unharmed from the dawn of time, until Evil Men appeared.
Burger King can donate its new Peat Moss not Really burgers, which the Peta Thugs have forced on BK. (Link to Peta's site bragging about forcing BK to serve this awful thing to fund more eco terrorism and maybe tree sitters)
I figger that'd clear the pests outa the trees pretty fast...

Need I inform you of the flaw in your idea?
The Eco-terrorists have no life; terrorism is their life. - We, on the other hand have families, businesses, and other responsibilities that prevent us from turning our lives into a continuous stream of symbolism.
Whatever native intelligence they may possess has been subverted, inverted, and perverted by an educational establishment whose inner logic strives to perfect a ruthless social engineering scheme, intrinsically no different from the Soviet project of creating 'a new man'.
These misguided youths are a sorry substitute for a well-schooled posterity, capable of carrying out needful historical tasks.
Wacko leftist groups are a handy means of derailing intellectual critics of the American State from pursuing effective opposition to it. Frankly, an angry citizenry is just what the country needs to save it from a recurrence of the Clinton phenomena, surely a low point in recent times of probity in high office.
As it is, the so-called 'Left alternative' offers NO real alternative to the massive and intrusive state which has been the bane of humanity, including America for more than half a century.
I think young people will not long be fooled by this barren choice-- corrupt interest-driven government as offered by the Republicans OR interest-driven corrupt government, but more of it, the insane Democratic alternative!
The public schools are turning out legions of graduates whose science education has been warped by the governing paradigm. At some point in time, young people will have a moment of enlightenment. ;^)
Then we will see how the socialist wet-dream state fares. I predict, 'not well'.
Sorry to rant off-topic, but enviro-wackoism is made possible only by a school system which values politically correct ignorance to applecart-upsetting truth.
