[QUOTE="dgarrett, post: 1468263, member: 58686"] We saw billions and billions of board feet of beetle killed timber go to waste here because the Forest Service wouldn't stand up to the Environmentalist in Court and give a coherent defense in why logging was such an important part of fire reduction..I have to agree they don't want them put out.... When was the last time a D8 cat was put on the ground to go make fire line... This fire fighting is big big business and seems to be the only thing the Joke Service and BLM want to do these days. No money or employees cruising timber for timber sales... no range management except 40 worthless clowns out pounding in no motor vehicle travel on roads that have been open for 80 years.. .The local TV News started their reporting of our up coming fire season way last March..Priming the people for the on going business adventures of so called fire fighting...I guess instead of looking at all the jack straw blown down rotting bug killed timber and having to answer anyone questions about that when it burns the evidence is gone.. Like it never happened.... Lightning is the major cause of fires.... Man caused at a very small number but man caused makes the news... Used to be every logger and farmer went and put the fires out as soon as they started ... now they leave them burn till they get big enough to make news ..If anyone took care of their dog the way the Government has our forests and grass land they would be in jail for pet abuse.
