May poly AW, finished wood products, znd, raw log product, clear cuts (that's what loggers do, man) and haulers of Avian all live happily ever after in some kind of dreamy eco-heaven. Economic and eco-logical.

Some people tell me that basic resource harvesting is low tech and making small boxes that do word processing is high tech and never the Shania Twain will meet. (She owns a chain saw, a halter-top and a lap, but not a lap-top).

Bud I differs. We have graduated from the vibration-maximized chain saw to quintessentially high tech over computerized harvesters. If it breaks down your HD meckie has to have a comp sci degree to fix it. Good luck, fellah. That's real progress over the steam powered donkeys of the hi-line days. Pretty soon we will have a complete saw/paper mill on tracks able to work at 45 degrees. And it will work better than 20% of the time. And make poly AW from the rear end (appropriately) as an extra.

I am not so sure there is any dividing line in technologies or any advantage in value added products, except that slave wage farms are homeside.
