From NYT this morning: Trump Administration to End Protections for 58 Million Acres of National Forests. Maybe Brent Cole can put is into context for us. This is not meant to be an inflammatory political rant. Please, let's stick to the issues of what this will mean to the forest. |

Tom is being serious and wants to avoid politics and I respect both his intent and him. I'd genuinely be interested in an informed discussion as well that does not get political. So please let's not let this thread become a severed head that Col. Kurtz tosses in our laps.... Thanks |

Good luck with this discussion... it's been politically contentious in all aspects since the last few days of the Clinton Administration when the Roadless Rule was amended to add 58 million acres (about 5% of the total land area of the US, and just a little less than the land area of California) to the lands which fall under the management and use restrictions of the rule. Perhaps the way forward should be for the OP to: 1) Identify the elements of the issue that are inherently non-political and suitable for discussion here 2) Identify the elements of the issue which have some demonstrable impact on luthiers 3) Identify the common elements between 1) and 2), which bound what might be discussed here per rule To reiterate, good luck with that. |

I was hoping Brent would comment since this is in his back yard. |

I look forward to Brent's perspective as well. Bob Taylor may also be on top of this and it could be worth looking for any info that he is posting somewhere on the interwebs. |
