Joshua Kramer-
  I just recieved the letter you wrote back to me about logging.
You stated that if logging continues at its
current pace we all would die.  Just think about that for a minute,
it really doesnt make alot of sense.  It is obvious that you do not
know a whole lot about logging.  You mentoined the current rate of
logging....well since you know so much, what is the current rate of
logging?  I live in a logging community, and I dont even know the
current pace of logging!!  I dont know what your idea of logging
is, but we arent taking all of the trees and leaving the forests
bare.  We also aren't burning down the trees like they are doing in
the rain forests.  That would be more on the lines of what you're
talking about.  I suggest you do a little research on logging
before criticizing something you don't know anything about.
Logging is just like your agriculture, it is a renewable resource
and is beneficial to all people. Maybe you need to sit and think
about all of the products you use that are made out of wood.
Should we start using plastic for everything?
                                          Thank you,
                                          Shannon Rae.
