Akula Your stupidity is growing by the post. Re: Pardon me. I was under the impression that America now has a quarter of a billion fewer acres of forest now than in 1492. And let's not forget that ozone hole, global warming (please don't try to tell me that hasn't been proven), and oil spills. The fact is, the Earth is a lot worse off now. We could very well end up killing ourselves off. LOL! Hey......tell me how; if humans wanted to destroy the ozone layer to the point we would all die. Come on now....give me the master plan to destroy the ozone!! Tell me the plan you mentally concieve where we could knock ourselves off by cutting down a renewable resource.....TREES! We have been here a very long time........we do not have the technical power to demolish our home our world........even if we so desired. Vendit >>gg<<

<<Pardon me. I was under the impression that America now has a quarter of a billion fewer acres of forest now than in 1492. >> You're pardoned. Where do you live? In a city, a subdivision, a house? Do you think your living quarters were there in 1492, or did someone have to cut some trees to clear the lot? Where does your daddy work? Do you think his place of employment was there in 1492? Does he drive through a forest to get to work, or does he use a road? Do you realize that your 250M acres amounts to only 8% of the US land mass? You are hereby pardoned if you didn't know how frugal and horticulturally conscious your forefathers were in building this country's infrastructure of 20,000 cities, 100,000,000 houses, 7,000,000 businesses and countless millions of roads.
