I've been thinking about this off and on since the op. You guys know darn well that 100 yrs ago a 2x4 measured 2"x4". That's why they called it that. Otherwise they would have called it an axj or a galexcy or a gate. Then the mills started "cheating" by cutting it just slightly less so no one would notice. Then over the years they made them smaller and smaller until the govt. had to make laws limiting them how small they could go. If that number did not reflect the size of the board then how come we need laws referring to the size of the board? Yes, you and I know it is cut smaller then its name but many people honestly don't know. Because they don't know, you don't have to call them idiots or stupid. There are many things I don't know but the next guy knows them like the top of his foot. I am not a stupid person, I just am not knowledgeable or experienced in every field. What about a few years back when some small engines got caught because there 3.5 hp. engine didn't put out 3.5 hp. They had to stop selling it as such and just advertise it as 'x' cubic inch. How is that different then this lumber thing?

The houses so close together you could hear the neighbors fight, traffic so heavy speed limit signs meant nothing. So I started looking for the ultimate country setting. After many months I found the perfect place, off the beaten path, up a private � mile drive, old stone house which has stood the test of time, out buildings which haven�t stood the test of time, trees, birds, rabbits, and snakes. This is the place! Bought
