Well, given the listed personal prejudices and desires listed in those points you provided, it's no wonder that there's no consensus. Every Dick and Jane who has a need is going to have a differing perspective on what should (or shouldn't) be done. Add onto that, in an age where increasing technological services are reducing the demand for wood products, that industry must adapt and change it's business model if it intends to survive. We are slowly, but surely moving toward a paperless society and the forestry industry is simply going to have to accept that fact and not expect some sort of "make paper" project to be created by the governments. Ironically, paper products (i.e.: books, stationary, etc) are once again in line to becoming luxury items that only the wealthy or interested will commit the resources to owning. The difference this time around, is that the same material will become freely (well, relatively) available to the general public through technological means. Which isn't really that bad of a thing. You've spoken about this subject before I believe David.
