Not much other than...

1 - How many fewer people it takes now vs. then
2 - How many fewer chances to be killed or maimed now vs. then

3- How much smaller the useful logs are. The logs going into the
"now" are about the same size as the waste coming out of the "then".


I wonder how that came about...

1 - "Holy crap...there ain't no big logs left. We better improve the cutting
process."

or

2 - "We've improved the cutting process so much we can start using smaller
logs."
