RB What is he going to pump.If you have the majority of the nation at roughly 54,000 for a family of four and the cost continuing to go up whatever pumping he does is going to lead to more inflation. We had round of bubble this would bring round two. Right now due to tight labor there are juniors making more than seniors and this in itself causes shifts. The best he can hope for is status quo and period of no increase which is not possible due to the stress on earnings. Or is this becoming an AT&T situation where we look to Japan to save us in technology?

OT Your opinion please. Another "Hate Crime"?: December 2, 2000 Don't cry, butterfly: big trees make great decks After vandals used a chain saw to leave a substantial slice along the base of Luna, a 1,000-year-old redwood tree in Humboldt County, tree hugger Paul Bassis told The Chronicle that the chain-saw job was "not an act of vandalism, it's a hate crime. It's a hate crime against nature." Cross your fingers that Dems won't work for yet another federal law to prosecute this new category of hate-crime victim -- politically correct plants. Or conifers of a certain age. Yet in a sense, Bassis is right. There must have been a lot of hate emanating from the hands that held that chain saw. Controversy has surrounded the old tree since the campaign that turned the redwood into a four-letter word. For two years, environmental activist Julia Butterfly Hill lived in the tree as she crusaded to keep Pacific Lumber Co. from harvesting it. Her effort paid off. Pacific Lumber agreed not to fell Luna, and Hill didn't face charges for trespassing on private property. Rose Comstock, a timber specialist who grew up in Humboldt County, saw how the episode rubbed many locals the wrong way. "Trespassers, folks who chain themselves to gates, chain themselves to trees and prevent people from going to work in a legitimate area cause a great deal of anger and resentment," she observed.
