>Calling
me a mouth piece of Rush Limbaugh. Ignorant, not well read, and right wing extremist.<

Please show me EXACTLY where I said any of those things oh wise and moderate one (except for ignorant). And I never talk in circles, only straight lines which are to a point. As for being bent, not even one degree. And actually I did say it was the quality of the trees I did not attack your facts.

You said:>Del, there are more tree's in North America today than a hundred years ago.<

I said:>Because 100 years ago we had deforested most of the country. And we have lost
GENETIC diversity in our trees (just as we have with our crops). We have lots of pulp
trees but that is hardly the same as having a mature forest, with hundreds of species per
acre. Plantations of pulp trees do not support the biological diversity that a real forest
would. We should be careful about kidding ourselves and calling cornfields prairies and pulp
tree plantations forests, they are not the same.<

I don't see how what I said was an attack.

My statement is pretty much what you said I should have said 9or did I have to say it in exactly these words to be "correct"):

>You could have simply said, well that's true but look at the quality of the tree's or the
fact that there is less diversity. But you didn't. You and Del elected instead to attack me.
Calling me a mouth piece of Rush Limbaugh. Ignorant, not well read, and right wing
extremist.<

But I am sorry that you are so bent out of shape you don't realize that. And you have still proved zip, nada, null, nothing.
