Having the ability to murder one's child because of who the mother is is creepy. It's vile, it's sick and disgusting.

More concern for a tree than your own child. Someone need's humanity 101.

"The day has come when building a redwood house is akin to wearing a leopard-skin coat"

Nobady builds house out of redwoods. It is used for fencing and decks, and as I said in an earlier post, it is a practice that is on the way out.

"Think of future generations when you call for loggin of sequoias"

Another lie Spirit Boy? I did not and have not called for logging redwoods. When you lied about Bush wanting to cut down old growth redwoods I called you on it. Let's try to keep it honest mr. spinmeister.

"While the forests which are cut down never really grow back"

That's kind of a stupid statement isn't it? A) There is not too much clear cutting anymore, and B) Just about all of the Tahoe area and Northern California has been logged, and there are MORE trees now than there were then. I'm not saying the newer forests are better btw. Just pointing out another incorrect statement.

"And if you donmt think accidents still happen"

Another silly statement. Of course accidents still happen. They always will have and always will. But that is not an excuse to stop progress. Their are many that want to shut down NASA because of the Columbia disaster. A sad event to be sure. But not a reason to stop progress.

"Ecology 101 will teach you that the slightest change in balance of nature can set off a chain-reaction which gradually kills the entire eco-system"

Can you name an ecosystem that has been entirely killed? Just curious.
