Saw ad on TV recently, I forget for what but it was some organzation bragging about saving a tree by reducing paper use. They showed giant old tree in a the middle of a green field. The tree was full of bird nests, happy racoons and such. "We won't have to use this tree to make our packages" or what ever. Reminds me of a graduate level class I was in for Environmental Management. The professor was a retired EPA regulation writer (and darn proud of it). She when on about recyling paper and reducing the use of new paper as low as possible. I tried to point out to her that it is not a zero sum game. I told her that my family had a pretty good size chunk of timberland (1000+ acres) and it was timber BECAUSE there is a market for the trees. If timber havesting went the way of tobacco or the fur trade,(politically incorrect) it would probably be cleared for pasture, crops or 3 acre ranchettes, none of which would benefit the tons of wildlife it supports as a working forest. She had no answer for me but she is probably writing a regulation or something. Sorry needed to vent about regulations! Eric

The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
