No story we write will be remembered in the future more than those about the foerst and the ocean. In this story, we begin a documentary adventure of exploring the many perspectives on timber harvesting. We feature Dr. Sarah Bisbing here, who believes small-scale logging like the AMEX plan described here are crucial to the future survival of the forest in a time of global warming. Acheyal Wachtel and myself are launching a documentary on the forest. We plan to seek the perspectives of the indigenous, the timber comipanies, the environmentalists, the foresters and many more. Stay tuned. We will watch this forest plan unfold and publish here and on Youtube.

An interesting item I got on my stream as a business reportter which I am not anymore at least not nationally. They believe coal is terrific investment for the ture. Sad, but I think true. I dont believe naybody is going to let there b4 a change at midtems, the GOP is very smart and sophisticated on the use of propaganda tools. Most people dont even suspect what is going on, but its basically all there if you start by reading the Art of War and the Prince and mov foward and observe how modern political power is creted, not at the abllot box and by supplanting communication and journalism everywhere. i hope to document some of this soon, it would also help the Corporte Dems stay in power and push out the Progressive Democractic Socalists.

At that time I believed a journalist should not express opinions, but this sub...
