"Management", as opposed to "preservationism" will get our forests
resored much quicker than "Mother Nature", as she works on very long
cycles without man's intervention.

Are you a corporate shill?

No, but you're still an ignorant shrill, schreeching idiot..


Actually, he asked a legitimate question considering the fact Larry Harrel's
response included this statement:

"Also, If the USFS didn't have to meet all those NEPA
guidelines, public opinion, and a multitude of local, regional, state
and Federal laws, just like private industry, then maybe we'd make a
profit, Fred"

Why say "we'd" if he wasn't involved in the industry? There's a chance this
guy works in the timber industry.

THen again there is a chance Fred's reading skills aren't very good.
The quoted text implies that he works for the USFS. Accusing him of
being a corporate shill is, to put it mildly, an inane sort of thing
to do.
