I still haven't gotten an explanation as to what you consider to be
"delusions and misinformation contained within the article".

Very little in the Clayoquot sound area is actually slated to be "protected"
Mac Blo very well COULD go back and renegotiate for the rest of it later on
(and given that they could, I very much expect that they WILL).

The blockade "delays" the loggers by about 1/2 hour each morning.
(more accurately -- The Mac Blo truck with the person who serves notice
of the injunction to the protestors arrives between 6:AM and 6:18AM.
The last logging truck (they go by very widely spaced) is thru by
7:30, or so.. If you subtract the time that it takes the trucks to
go by, this comes to about 1/2 hour plus or minus a bit of fuzz.
(if you'll excuse the pun).

Could you give a more specific detail of what has "changed drastically"?
This would probably be more usefull than random "I see all sorts of loggers
taking classes" comments.

More information makes for a more informed decision.
