In Response To: Mahogany regrets (Peter S.)

Jeez, what a hornet's nest I stirred up. Rereading my original post, it does sound a bit like I'm about to hang myself. It's not realy that bad. I was expecting a lot more "plant a tree" responses, but was pleasantly surprised at the good natured understanding. Please, be an informed consumer. Research before you buy. Don't believe what corporations tell you. And don't believe your own rationalizations. Let your conscience be your guide. I liked all the suggestions about using scrap wood. What a twist!

P.S. It was a Pygmy Coho.
