Thread: Time to rape Oz?

The great hardwoods are fast disapering as most African and east Indian woods are banned from importation to the U.S.
But I am amazed at some of the material coming out of Australia.
This is red Coolabah,extreamly hard and dense,just one of many exotics the land down under is sending to market

Did you see that news report on the RedWood trees being poached out in CA? As wood becomes more difficult to obtain, illegal logging will grow. Its a shame. I do love the look of that wood though! =D

I guess thats on account of that canoe trip he went on. Apparently one of the mountain men said "he sure got a real purty mouth, ain't he?' About him and he's been a bit touchy ever since.

As far as I can make out the mountain man only meant that Oz talks nicely with a pleasant accent and is a joy to listen to.

Mind you, camping in the mountains with John Voight is the last thing I'd do after seeing Midnight Cowboy...

Now don't you get me off topic, Neil !!

BTW,,,

John Voight did win an Oscar for that role,,,,
