I also question if there are really 'old growth' logs there. I go by there often, and there are some large diameter logs in the cold deck, but that does not mean they are automatically older than the second growth Swanson has access to. In any case, I doubt that any of these people would know the difference. The protesters I have run into, and chased off our mill property, were from back East, and hired to come out here to protest by an unknown outfit. This action is almost attempted murder, in my book, as I have seen a big saw hit an object hidden in a log, several times. It is like a hand grenade exploding, and the folks working close by are just lucky to avoid death, or worse. I have worked in the industry many years, but I also want to save a fair amount of the old stuff, that can't be replaced. But, this behavior is not to be tolerated. They need to be identified, and made to stand next to the Head Rig saw, and let them find a spike for themselves.
