54 bore, what is your problem? All the man said is that he hated to see such a big chunk of forest wiped out and that he thought it was illegal to cut timber on federal ground. I can't think of one person who would not be disappointed to arrive at their hunting spot and find it gone from being logged off! He certainly didn't say anything to cause you to go off on a tangent and call him a tree hugger, bunny hugger, granola etc. Your presumption and sorry post makes you look like a person who will not get along here, (I won't use the words I want to use), especially since it was your 4th post and you have no feel at all about the people who post on this site. The fact that you work in the logging industry doesn't give you leave to spout the kind of crap that you did. For the record, I eat bunnies, I don't hug them and I don't eat Granola!
