Tell me Falcon, since you're such a clever *******, where do you think
the 162,000* Oaks that Nelson used to make his fleet came from?
No idea, Einstein, but wherever it was that would be around 500 - 700 acres
of woodland. Sounds vast until the 'scientist' in you cuts in and realises
that the New Forest alone covers roughly 76,000 acres of woodland and
plantations. So much for "the Spanish Armada" deforesting a country the size
of Spain.
