Have you been to Africa?

Negatory. I was just being a smarty pants. The article said something about African forests. I didn't even know Africa had forests. I thought it was either jungle or deserts.

I never really got off on primates....

You're no Jane Goodall.

Heaven's No! Jane was be-headed by Africans!

Well I never have seen Big Foot or Big Apes, I imagine in Africa they have animals we proably never heard of here in the U.S

Jane Goodall was a primate too.

IIRC, Africa is the most forested continent on the planet, as a percentage of land. Huge swaths of Africa have never met even 18th century industrialization.

The deforestation and lack of forest in the world is one of the great myths of the environmental left. It is only true in Europe, and to a lesser extent, Asia. Most of the rest of the world is as forested or more forested that it was a few hundred years ago, including North America.
