remember the name of the "guitar company" that we sold to. I thought I jsut
saw my NET30 turn into NET-NEVER.

Unfortunately for Fender and guitar lovers, it is likely that the only
way to really slow down illegal logging is the same way we are beginning
to slow down poaching of rare animals, by making all trade of certain
rare commodities. In the case of elephants, it's ivory. In the case of
the forests, it's certain rare woods.

At least for now, instead of cutting down our few remaining trees, it
might be a better course of action to recycle tonewood from existing
sources (pianos?), just as many of us reuse wood from old furniture, or
use wood mined from rivers, lakes, and bogs. Another course of action
would be to pursue research in developing man-made substitutes for
endangered natural products.
