Why not? Because of damage from the
recent storms?

trying to restore it.

Um, none. The question I have is who
would carry me? It'll take years, yer
right -- but it might be better for the
land, in the meantime, for there to be
less of the adventurer-tourists. Maybe.

yea , i think that's what nature's plan was ,
although it is moderated fairly well ,
only so many per year , per day and the like ,
but its seems to me no matter how ,
the forest always reclaims itself ,
if i left my backyard alone there would be ,
and invasion of aspen trees

And it would happen pretty quickly, too,
eh? I saw a great documentary about how
satellite heat sensore were able to
provide colored maps based on the age of
the forest. They found a lot of Mayan
villages that way that no humans knew
existed.

I just don't believe that humans can end
life on earth. Our own presence, surely,
but not "life". imo.
