Young fast growers will suck up just as much water. Not that Im saying Old growth isnt a part of the eco-system, Im just saying it isnt the holy grail that some people make it ouut to be. After all Europe is doing pretty well without most of its old growth..life goes on and things continue to thrive. Though I guess that there really isnt a "lot" of forest in western europe right now. (Im only basing this thought on night time satelite photos of the lights havent looked up any stats.)[/QUOTE]

Hey uss!

I'm an American and I don't hate you.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, don't sweat it!

Oh no, Great Bringer of Clouds, he can`t speak english AT ALL. You see, Estonias president does not really have much power. He is more like the representer of our beloved tiny land. But what good is representing if you cant speak with any world leader except Russias president?
But that is certanly not even half of why i(and many others from my country) would like another president. He IS a senile old man, and talks in a way that is hardly understandable. When he was in Helsinki(The capital of Finland), he said:"I like it here. The houses are short, not like in New York". Thats not the whole story(and you probably still dont understand why i dislike him) but its 2:43 and im getting very sleepy.

Uss, that was a rather insensitive post you made. Are you SURE you meant to say that you aren't fond of Americans (PEOPLE) rather than America (COUNTRY or GOVERNMENT)?

-Sazerac
Ah, Thats the damn problem! Yes, i meant America not Americans, now, please dont kill me, ban me, or whatever me!
