The glamour activity in camp is tree climbing. Meredith Jefferson, a recent graduate of the University of California at Berkeley, practiced coiling the end of a rope to form a weighted bullet that she then tossed over the branch of a tree.

But doesn't this cause the tree to recoil in pain?

"One of the most empowering things you can do is to know that you can effect change when you sit in a tree or blockade a road," she said.

Couch potatato devolves to monkey.

The 56-year-old bookseller from Alaska

Not to insult anyone from the last frontier, but there's a brilliant career choice for you.

If this is all we're up against, we've won. Unfortunately this is not all we're up against.

They should be ordered off the trees (which are private property after they are sold for logging) and then arrested for tresspassing if they do not comply.

State police should be having tree climbing classes at the same time these idiots are getting theirs.

Maybe as a bit of repayment for those who lost their homes due to the stupid environmental policies of the past, we could bring them in and give them a rifle and take a shot at these morons.

It won't bring their houses back, but it sure would feel good.

Another "unside-downism" from the kooks on the commune. In fact, they are attempting to prevent change, not effect it.

In conversations around the camp, many here speak with a fervor and invoke the names of their role models - Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Che, Pol Pot, Lenin, Trotsky...

Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
That's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me.
It isn't every day
good fortune comes me way!
I never thought the future would be fun for me!
And if I had a bugle
I would blow it to add a sort
o' how's your father's touch.
But since I left me bugle at home
I simply have to say
Thank you very, very, very much!
Thank you very, very, very much!

Thank you for your donation!

He wants to protect the trees. Do you think he'll stay in his seat when the forest fires due to undercutting and low road maintenance come?

FJ, Here's hoping their "teachers" are highly incompetent. Embicilism is already
evidenced. Peace and love, George.

"What's that up the tree? Is that a greenie whacko staked out?"

Buzzzzzzzzzzzz.............zrrrrrrrrrrrrr........"TIM-BERRRR"!

Memorial services for the greenie whacko will be held Saturday, somewhere in Germany.

The tree can be viewed later at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Johnson in the form of a beautiful bedroom set.
