I respectfully disagree , Kev. Did the clearcutting of the whole state at the turn of the century destroy the "ecosystem". The eco-wizards think they can preserve the forest the pretty way (BIG "OLE TREES FOR MILES) it is and still sustain it. The only rule in nature, my friend, is everything that lives must one day die, and return to the earth, so that new life can be created. Have a little faith in nature and the regenerating power that it wields.
