I just sent this message to Mary:

"Best of luck of getting rid of the Eco Terrorists in your trees."

"We all need lumber and the products from trees to live in our world."

"You are not by yourself!"

Recently went to a 'small' redwood stand called the 'Muir Woods' outside of SanFrancisco. Had a great time making the enviro-wackos mad. Friends and I would stand at the base of the redwood pointing and saying 'Chair. Chair. Table. Bookcase.'

Guess I'm just easily entertained.

BTW, Redwood trees are pretty d*mned impressive. I've seen some of the old white pines that the colonists used to use for tree masts. They're dwarfed by these redwoods....and the ones that we saw were the little ones. It's worth saving those in the national parks. Outside of that....they're fair game, as far as I'm concerned.
