I understand the humor, and understand the its applicability to the thread which I started, and ultimately destoyed, but maybe...just maybe, this discussion was of the UTMOST importance to what the entire web page focuses on. Please be aware that this discussion was right on the money and the ridiculous picture which to me seemed to represent the exact snuffing effect that we were yelling about. I love the Pine Barrens and if a spark could be set from here, I would hate to see the Admin. snuff it out. What we were talking about is real and the upset brought on by the hyberbole of the picture seemed very disruptive to maybe the most important topic alive on this discussion forum. Maybe we need to talk more constructively? To that I would agree. Nothing for nothing ..with the current wave of thought..get ready to see the worst happen.. Maybe a difference could be started here. I would hate to see the ignorance be fueled in an arena such as this one which should be outside the usual bullshit that we are all dealing with. Am I wrong? I truly hope not. Again, the discussion most certainly needs to be more "professional" perhaps? FACT: New Jersey WILL see BUILDOUT status within 50 years from now based on the current rate of developement..and guaranteed the State will supply the developers with the land they need...Pinelands included. Martha Furnace WILL eventually be surrounded by houses if the current trend is not stopped by public resisitance. It won't happen in the next ten years, but WILL in the next 50. That is NOT acceptable since the Pine Barrrens needs to be here 1,000 years from now. That WAS the idea or what's the cause? please keep talking and let's get a thing together where we get EVERYONE to write to all the Powers That Be to curb Urban Sprawl. I don't care about the delicacies of the thread when it comes to the safety of our Mother. Please accept my apologies Admin. and I hope you understand these thoughts.
