Besides, wouldn't it be the PRINTER that is the metaphorical chainsaw?

You're right!

There's a SP2 now. I wasn't laughing till I got to read the saw... iSaw... lawl... Man, that's hilarious... Real good for running off the guy who keeps borrowing crap and NEVER returning it, just get a UH, 50ft cord or so. You can no longer hide behind the wall of your cubical, for I shall cut through it then smite you with my budget battle axe and chain mail!Hold still! It'll take a few hours for this cheap plastic toy machete to break your skin... Actually, when I said battle axe I was thinking something like thisI hate those crappy treehuggers. A USB CHAINSAW WOULD BE COOL!!Quote

So, you would have us squander, and not manage our resources?Quote from: AEGIS on July 19, 2009, 04:56:53 PM

If we're going to conserve something... it should be non-renewable resources, like petroleum. And yet, even though we only have a very limited supply, we still have people driving around in SUVs. We will need alternative sources of propulsion but it seems to have been put on the back burner by almost all the countries involved.

Trees grow back. As long as the timber companies are responsible, and ensure that the areas they clear are still habitable to new growth, the new growth is inevitable. Although it helps when some of them plant new seedlings to replace those they clearcut, which many do.

The problem I have with "tree-huggers" is that not only do they treat the trees as if they were self-aware, concious, and animate, but also that they paint the timber companies as evil comglomerates that have no regard for the environment. Wood is needed because it's in demand. How many trees had to be cut down just for the doobies the worlds hippies smoke?

And we still need houses. What are we supposed to build them out of? Aluminum? Well, then we need a lot of electricity to separate it from it's ore.

Different plant source.

Your point is well taken. There is extremism on both sides of the proverbial fence. It seems though, if companies would better regulate themselves, then the government or the huggers wouldn't have to chase them...and if the government better regulated itself. (Title to a new work of fiction, maybe?)true. It's fairly well regulated here, the entire province of British Columbia is literally covered in trees. A lot of it is protected, and even the parts owned by the timber companies are heavily forested (although for some reason lately they have cut their land off to hikers...). I think it's a regulation that the companies must be responsible and make sure that the areas they cut can regrow, but it might just be the companies perogative.


Also, I must at least contend that hippies don't often use toilet paper or shower, so their... err... carbon footprint is reduced.

Now their olfactory footprint, on the other hand... I just remember that part of the reason we've had such devastating wildfires in the States these last ten years or so, is that we've overprotected, and haven't allowed nature to takes its course. She's corrected things in quite a few places.
