Hello world!

"There are times when men of good purpose must stand up and be counted." I have no idea who said that -- or even if anybody said it, but that's the way I'm feeling right now and that's why I set up this web blog. There are things happening at the Cascade Forest Research Center that need to be talked about. Now don't get me wrong - I am absolutely NOT trying to get anybody in hot water, and I am NOT a whistle-blower. Well, maybe just a little. :) The researchers here are all good guys, but I think a lot of the time they can't see the forest for the trees. And I mean that literally! Anyway, I'm glad you found this space, and I hope to keep you fully updated on what's going on. Spread the word! The truth will out!
