How cool that Freepers are sending messages of support to Mary!

She is one of the great "class-act" ladys of our time. She's been harrassed, hated, abused, and threatened for many years now, and she just keeps on getting up in the morning, going out, and doing her job.

All who e-mail her will be sending well-deserved praise to a great lady.

Just sent off my message to the lady. I feel damn warm and fuzzy inside for having done so.

C'mon freepers, hit that link and send off a sentence or two to this company. Takes but a moment, but means a lot.

I also mentioned they were not alone, there's support for them out here in the country, even though I was but one voice in an email.

Instead of sending climbers up the trees, they should either shoot the sobs out of the trees or wash them out of the trees with fire hoses.

My vote is for the hot lead.

Forget about the beanbags. Use hot lead, either 00 or 30-06 180 grain hollowpoint.

Ok, just to present a disseting POV, I DON'T support logging 1,200 year old redwood. Both emotionally and intellectually.

First: If you try to take old redwoods from their owners many will cut them down before you pass the law in order to save their property from your taking.

Second: If you think the trees are so valuable, buy a contract for the rights to control them and pay to maintain the forest around them, else you are effectively sentencing them to death.

And yes I do support private property rights. And no, I can't propose a solution that will be accepted by both sides.

I would argue that you have a poor understanding of property rights and less of a clue on how common beliefs similar to yours have devalued forests and condemned many of them to destruction. If you want to understand the issue better try my book: Natural Process: That Environmental Laws May Serve the Laws of Nature. This book IS a solution acceptable to many on both sides.

"Don't do it, Eric -- think of the forests," one of them said as Schatz started up another tree. Other supporters played drums, sang songs and chanted encouragement to the activists high above in the trees.

Left wing mutants. Seriously.

One more email of support to Mrs. Bullwinkel and Pacific Lumber has been dispatched.

Sometimes it takes so little to help, I just hope it's enough.
