For sure, more the reason to emphasize the management of the ever
lessening acreage.  As consulting foresters you and I don't have the
budget for educationg the public that the state and feds do, yet we
impact them greater than they.  Seems like there job is education of the
public, yet their I&E budgets get chopped every year.

My tax dollars wasted on competing with me.
