I'm sorry you have become so bitter with the world.

I am sorry you are so gullible.

Have you ever considered that someone else's point of view that may be different to yours may have some correct elements to it? Or do you always conclude that if the opinion is different to yours it must be incorrect?

Rumpelstiltskin,

No
and
YES

Now that you have discredited yourself by showing that you are unwilling to listen to other points of view, i will rest my case.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the article.

I have had a few close friends work as fundraisers for the Wilderness Society, and obtain most of their information from the very same source. I believe it is to create a more compelling story entice people on the street sign up for the monthly donations. To my friends credit, when presented with a more complete picture these typically intelligent people seem to absorb the information without prejudice.

However the cause of the green groups is just. Without pressure from these campaigns native forest logging practises would not be changing for the better. Still I thin exaggerating the threats is distasteful, and an even more serious issue is government using obviously biased reports from these ENGOs to guide policy decisions.
