I was out along the Columbia a decade or two ago when I became aware that there were vast quantities of raw logs that were being shipped to Japan +? for processing. There may be even larger quantities from B.C.

Given the the US gov't is after Gibson for getting raw wood in from 'Frica, it wood (haha) seem that we should be sawing North America's logs withing the confines of our shores to provide value added exports.

Globalims is extremely destructive. IIRC the one sawmill we have left specializes in large logs and sells that lumber to Japan.
