Not for it. One bit.

If you folks are into living in houses made with only steel, or want to wipe your asses with shells instead of toilet paper, go ahead, support it.

I bank the Quinault Valley. I bank the people who work in those forests. There are MANY small businesses that depend on working in those forests. Those forests provide MANY living wage jobs. Is it easy? No. Are there a sh!t ton of trees in the area? Yes. Is it a renewable resource. Yes. 40-50 year cycle for tree harvets in that area. Do you honestly think that loggers wish to destroy the environment that provides their living? Do you know that there is continuing education required for loggers? Probably not.

Huge sections are already devoted to national park land, and then when you add into that the roadless areas in the national forests, the area unaffected by logging gets even larger.

Think you'll be able to hunt there? Wrong.

This is a campaign run by city folks who might visit the area a few times a year that will have a large inpact on the people who live there 100% of the time.

Might sound good on the surface, but it isn't in application. City folks are all about feeling good about how they saved country folks from themselves. Stay in the fuckin' city.

One final observation, who the hell is this tree hugger extrordinaire, "Fishologist"? Make sure you check the knotholes for bees.

Sorry to step out of my normally reserved position on things, but people who have no standing in a particular region causing upset to those who do live there really is a pet peave.
