Mr. Joseph of Portland is a "day late and a dollar short."  Environmentalists of all stripes have been denouncing Earth  First's claim  from the time it was reported.  While there might be a few radical  nuts out there hiding behind their anonymity,  I don't know a single true environmentalist who supports the disgusting practice of tree spiking.  Nor do we know if the reported log  spiking at Noti even happened.   
       The real threat to loggers, mill workers and trees is discussed  in today's article "26 million trees have died   in the Sierra Nevada."
