| My family had worked in the steel mills and rail yards around Chicago
| for generations. The steel mills practically shut down in the late 70s
| early 80s, taking thousands of jobs with them. 
| 
| I got myself through college and am able to take care of my family, 
| not as a steelworker, but as a designer at Intel.

Deal with it?  oh, sure, i am going to give up my lifestyle so someone can
sleep a little better knowing that some part of some forest is going to be
left alone...   for now

that person - do they realize that :

1.  the recycled paper they use came from an original wood product?
2. the welfare cheques are printed on the same?
3. the beams in the house are wood
4. etc.........

when we stop using paper/wood  products (new, recycled, and otherwise) then
we should stop logging.  Until then, i suggest you target the users before
you target the industry...  

the workers need to eat and feed their families as well - i somehow don't
think welfare will cover that - if i don't  "deal with it" i will end up on
welfare

cheers to being poor and sucking the system the rest of my life.... (that
is, until i learn a new trade)
