Let us do a little math. Cut down one tree plant seven. How many do you have now. That is how it works. Yes they are smaller for awhile, trust me they will grow. In the making of the move The last of the Mohecans (spelling?) the producers wanted to find the most lush natural looking dense beautiful forest. They searched and search for the right setting. To make a long story short they ended up in a second growth engineered forest.
Yes leaves etc are part of soil but soil conservation authotrities will tell you ash is also a key ingrediant, key for proper pH. When mixing compost, add some ash, it will do wonders. I have a green side, I like to produce my own veggies and raise meat poultry. I like to know the chicken had a good life before the hatchet.
Before forestry and because of thousands of lighting strikes a day, the forest used to routinly burn up over vast areas. Now we put the fires out thinking we are helping nature (and to protect homes of course).
Rick thanks for the info on the tranny mitten. I am new to helis. I have flown planks for over a decade off of frozen lakes. My friends wear gloves but I must have bear fingers on the sticks or I feel disconnected. I'll try the mitten with your recommendation, even though you called me a sheep F**ker and talked somthing about someones wife.
Helicopter34 hang in there bro. I know school is tough. I admit enigineers fresh out of school know a little about everything and a lot about nothing. This is why they have to work under licensed professionals for at least four years-
Around graduation they take an eight hour nation wide exam called the Fundimentals of Engineering. It is hella tough. After four years of school (they call it a four year degree, that is if you are ready for college calculus your first day of school) -which really take the best students five years and most students six years-, you take the FE. If you are among the few that pass, you are called an EIT or Engineer in Training. Pretty glamorous title for someone who stayed up till two every night studing for six years. Most students had a side job like cashier at the store. More often than not, they took PAYCUTS to START their four year internship after six years of the hardest college courses around. After the four year (minimum) internship they must have the PEs they worked under sign and vouch they they are worthy of the license. THEN ANOTHER eight hour test that only a third pass. If you are among the lucky you get your license and add PE to your name. Then the big bucks start rolling in HAHAHA yeah right. The union flagger/stop sign turner (whos boss often is required to pay certain minimum wages to quailify to bid a job) makes about ten bucks an hour more. Hard for me not to get upset, and I make more than most engineers at my level (PE for 3 years) and to boot, the excavator calls me a sheep f**ker.
If you can get a job at the docks BAG SCHOOL. Yes, they make over $100k moving boxes. School will be there when the robots take over. Unions are great for Americans and bad for America.
Oh I forget, after all of that, If you say anything intelligent people will say it is only becasue you listen to Rush Limbaugh.
Good Luck!
