albert do you live in a tin house?

You're taking that way out of proportion, no? That's completely out of the context of what I said.

Firstly, they've already developed materials for home construction that are completely 100% free of wood. I couldn't cite the material for you other than I've caught it twice on Daily Planet. These materials are far more fire resistant, structurally more robust and can be made into modular units - decreasing the build time into a matter of weeks vs. months.

Second, no one is giving away any money. There's plenty of ways to make money and solutions to jobs have already been mentioned earlier in this post.

Third, my stands are made out of metal with MDF skins and they look fine to me. MDF is made out of wood waste products, of which there are plenty to be had as it is.

Last, I don't golf. I've tried it. It reminds me of waiting for the bus. There's not much of an objective commentary I can make here other than the fact that there's plenty of golf courses as it is.

So would I give all that up? Well, unless there's some really compelling reasoning that I'm completely ignorant to that doesn't involve human wants, you bet I will.

I've got a question for you:

What says you to a future where your children only hear about forests in history classes?
