Yes. Unlike you, they think a few years ahead and realize that planting
trees now makes trees to harvest years from now.


Yes, but you miss the point. Do they "think a few years ahead" because
they *want* to or because the laws say they *have? to? I contend the
latter, because before the laws were in place, they would clearcut and
then just walk away...

This probably does happen on Potlatch owned land though they dont
leave a few trees to reseed, the replant millions of new trees.

Forced? What happens to a farmer is he dosent replant?

Huh???

How did we get talking about farmers, with their relatively small
(compared to forests) private plots of land?

But to address your question "What happens to a farmer is he dosent
replant?", the answer is: the gummint pays him to *not* plant. (I'm sure
you have heard of the subsidy program)... :-)

Carter,

I contend the former, because they will want to be in business ten years
from now. Logging equipment and debarkers and kilns and other lumber-
producing equipment doesn't come cheap, and they can either depreciate
it over a long lifetime at low cost to the lumber consumer or try to
charge a gazillion shekels per board foot to pay for it all.

Check the sites of some of the paper makers. They brag about their
reforestation efforts. Even if their labors are crassly commercial,
they're putting back new trees to replace the trees they take, in
spades.

Yep, at least three more years without some brain stem liberal in the Presidency...

You prefer a Nationalist Socialist? Why?

Did I mention anything at all about a National Socialist, brain stem?

Jeez, some parrot taught dzArse a new insult -- now he has
four to use in each posting.


Please try to pay attention, at least once in your life. I know it's difficult, but with
some medication and some therapy, things might actually work out for you.

Why? It did nothing for you, brainless stem.

'Brainless stem' is an oxymoron, 'tard.

Not when the brain has withered off the stem, as has yours.


You'll have to do better than that to beat the 'ol dxAce in most any endeavour.

Easily done, with one brain tied behind my back.

You must have stolen it as you certainly never had one of your own.

Keep trying 'tard boy.
