hate to break the bad news to you - but those in charge (corporate, etc.) don't give 2 shits about the people who make their $$$ - trust me; if they did, bad logging practices would never have changed. Thanks to the IWA (i am not pro union by any stretch) very little of forestry is production based (pay rate). i used to think highly of greenpeace, but over the last few years their terrorist tactics have become unappealing... i will continue to pick away piece by piece... k.
