You see that tiny little black patch? That's the 1% of old growth forests left, and ol' Dubya is planning a preemptive strike against the weapons of moss production.
That was cute. Just thought I'd mention it because if I thought of that and no one mentioned it, I'd feel a little let down.

forests make great farmland
I interrupt the scheduled broadcast to point out that that may be true in the USA, but it's not true in the Amazon Basin.
Were not talking about the amazon basin tho. In the USA we pretty much clearcut whole forests to turn into farmland, and well other things like desks ad stuff. Yes in the Amazon the biomass is all locked up in the flora and fauna itse'f and the soil itself is nutrient poor. But again were not talking about the amazon.
