First in regards to: "Mr. LaFountain specializes in beavers, which abound in the Bay State."

The author is right about the eastern part of the country being mostly forest. There is far more forest around here than "leafy suburbs." Everytime I fly out of Boston, woods is pretty much all I see. The environmentalists and overpopulation nuts have no idea what they are talking about. We have 280,000,000 people in this country yet we could easily support 10,000,000,000 and still have plenty of woods and open spaces.
