    Or it's because we managed forests better back then-- i.e., actually
    removed deadwood instead of leaving it in place as fuel for future
    fires-- instead of listening to enviro-kooks tell us how to do it.

    What's really surprising is the whole world didnt go ape-shit and say we
    were all gonna die in 10yrs from Global warming.
