Machines wear out,especially War Machines in War time and they wear out
much faster,they have to be replaced from time to time with new Machines. As far as I think I know,there are three West Points in America.New York,Mississippi,and Utah. cuhulin |

I knew there are a lot of forest in Canada and some parts of Canada does
get a lot of rain,Vancouver and out that way,I think.But I never thought of them as being Rain Forest.Usually,I think of Rain Forest as being in Asia and South America. Mississippi has more Forest than any other U.S.State. www.devilfinder.com Mississippi Trivia cuhulin |

I should have meade my point of contention a little clearer. Would you like it if someone described you "crawling around" these forests in a quadripedal fashion? That would be a tad offensive, no?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Rainforest in Canada and Alaska. A number of years ago I travelled out west in my VW Beetle for a month and a half, with a buddy to look for work. The rainforest in British Columbia and up into the Alaska Panhandle is beautiful, and lush with thick green growth and huge trees, and much wildlife. A great natural wilderness. Heaven on Earth. All the lush green growth and huge trees just makes everything look so much alive. Like no where else I've ever seen in Canada. When I was in Prince Rupert B.C. on the coast near the Alaska border, I bet I only saw the sun for about a half hour in the two weeks I was there. Quite often it rained, but not a real heavy rain, more like a misty drizzle. Clouds often hid much of the mountains. and the humidity was always high. Lots of thick rainforest wilderness all around for hundreds of miles up and down the coast and surrounding islands. It was very beautiful, clean, and lots of fresh air. Not like the city I live in near Niagara Falls. There are actually a few different types of rainforest in the world. But they can be grouped into two major types. Tropical Rainforest, and Temperate Rainforest. Tropical Rainforest is the type that most people are familiar with. Temperate Rainforest is not so well known, because, I will guess, there is not as much of it. Much of the world's Temperate Rainforest is on the west coast of Canada, and extends up into the Alaska Panhandle. Temperate Rainforest might also be found on the coast of the State of Washington, and on the Olympic Peninsula of the State of Washington. I'm not sure, but I bet someone on this list can tell us for sure. Temperate Rainforests, like Tropical Rainforests, receive abundant, year-round rainfall, and are characterized by an enclosed canopy and high species diversity, but lack the year-round warmth and sunlight associated with Tropical Rainforests. The huge amounts of rainfall for the Temperate Rainforest out west is caused by the almost constant flow of moist air coming in off the Pacific Ocean, and then dumping all the moisture as rain or misty drizzle when the air mass start to rise in the coastal mountains. At least that's my guess. Whatever the case, I love that type of forest. Cato |
