well, to be fair, he did post that he really had no actual experiences to draw on, a while back, that he did not actually know anything to back his opinions.
He strikes me as a bit of a ###ual intellectual who should be a poster child for retro-abortions, and a founding member of the idtent club.
For a guy that knows so little, he sure does speak with the conviction of a zealot!
Maybe the logging around here isn't excessive enough. We have lots of black bears, even had a couple grizzlies digging on the hills out front of my house last spring.
there are basically two things about logging you gotta know. One, is that it is as close as you can come, to recreating a burn environment, without actually burning the area. The other is that if the fires are all put out, and the logging is not done, the whole place will eventually burn down in one massive fire, and the entire place will become essentially a monoculture, rather than a mixed age forest with patches of varied habitat scattered across the landscape. A single habitat forest is only really good bear country for part of it's life, and having the trees all age out at the same time just makes the land into a sterile dark forest with almost nothing of note, living in it.
if this gets me an entertaining pm, i'll post it for yer edification and laughter!
