ha! i like that one too <g>

we're in the vancouver (lower mainland)
area - about six hours drive from the
okanagan.

the fires were devastating this summer.
not only for those many unfortunate souls who
lost their homes but also for the creatures
that inhabit the forests.

about 200 wild horses thought to be descendents
of the original spanish steeds brought to
north america by columbus and cortez in the
early 16th century were threatened along
with grizzly bears, wolves, herd of moose and
deer and smaller animals and, of course farm
animals.

but, it IS nature and not nearly as sad as the
fate suffered by the people and animals in
iraq and afghanistan and, in fact, a large
part of our planet as a result of human intervention.

economically speaking, its estimated that 14
billion board feet of lumber has been destroyed
translating into approximately $5.6 billion as
finished lumber. they say it represents about
75% of what we export to the u.s.a. this is not
a good thing for b.c.

however, it is a good thing that we have one of the
highest minimum wage levels in canada. <g><ng>
