I don't watch reruns of "The Twilight Zone" anymore. I don't have to. I live in one. I'm sure I'm not the first person to compare Washington to that famous "middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition," but I'm pretty sure the debate now raging around forest fires and the National Forest System would make even Rod Serling himself shake his head and say, "No, too strange."

Mike Branch succinctly puts his finger on the problem.

I would be very happy with him running the Forest Service...his common sense would be a refreshing change.

Thank you for the ping....

We must be making some headway if a slanted paper such as the Washington Post even start to understand. We need to keep pounding the congress, the senate, and business community leaders in helping to take back our country from the goofy left. It may not seem like much, but just talk to your friends and neighbors and work on educating the people to REAL forest and natural resource development. We have the N.E.A., environmental groups, and a a lot of uneducated people who are harming us through ignorance. Set these people free with knowledge! The whole country will benefit.

Good place to start is at:

Klamath Relief Fund / Bucket Brigade P.O. Box 5252 Klamath Falls, OR 97601 or call 541-850-9495 10:00a.m. to 2:00p.m. Monday thru Friday

or go

But like us or not, our forests don't burn. Not like public forests do

I agree, let's hire Branch.

I think his quote above just about sums it up, duh.
