I disagree.  Here in Maine we have essentially no old growth.  But there we
are facing a ballot initiative that would effectively outlaw even-aged
management by limiting canopy openings to 1/2 acre and removals to 1/3 of BA
in 15 years.

Bret,
 How do you feel about even-aged production silviculture of native forests on
privately owned land?
