Ted, the U.S. is being blamed for every environmental problem out there, including the clear-cutting in South America and Africa. No one is holding those two continents responsible because they're supposedly "too poor" to do anything about it. In the U.S., the problem is too little logging. In South America and Africa, the problem is too much logging. Let's not pretend that the problems relate to each other, except in the grand scheme of preserving our forests. Letting forests burn down should never be considered "preservation." <Two more years and counting...> Don't count on it. Americans only give token acknowledgement of the environment. Al Gore faced a dilemma when he was asked about breaching the Snake River Dams to preserve Oregon salmon. It was either compromise his stance on the environment (which is already as thin as a Saltine) or tell the unionized employees that they're out of a job. Tenchusatsu
