I've seen TP lines. We visited such plants when I was in Forestry School. Your knowledge of the kind of trees used for that product should be transmitted to morons like Sheryl Crow. They are probably incapable of comprehending it. I've never worked in a paper plant, but my brother does. He makes kraft paper, which I'm sure you know is a component of corrugated boxes. His plant formerly relied on cull trees and chips from saw mill waste. Now all these saw mills are out of business so they are chipping sawlogs and hauling in recycled cardboard from thousands of miles away to put in the pulper. A colleague did an analysis of the paper industry and concluded there was a world-wide over-capacity. What is your thought on that???
