@marwilliamson @walterkirn Marianne: I like you and I think you mean well. But you don't look very deeply into things. We're going to get our lumber someplace. Either they'll cut down these trees in other nations and we'll pay them for it, or we can do it here and grow our own economy.

@walterkirn I’m so sad to see this. I’m such a fan of yours and UP IN THE AIR is one of my favorite movies. How is 280 million acres of forest being cut down not a sad thing?

@marwilliamson Perhaps reconsider this one. I'd like to think it was posted in haste, on the advice of an ignoramus.
