Bosworth Tour Update
Chief Dale Bosworth was in town today for a tour of logging in the Allegheny National Forest (and how great it is!). We'll post more details in the morning but for now check out our revised and updated press release.
Update: Photo shows Marienville Ranger Leon Blashock, Forest Service Chief Dale Bosworth, and Congressman Peterson from left to right. I have one question that has been bugging me all day. What is with that shirt?

To answer Jim, on "What's with that shirt".
Well, the shirt, and the pants for that matter are of a very "earth-y" colored green. The National Forests website, as you may have seen, is also very nice "earth-friendly" colors. It's a psychological thing, to wear colors that represent a "friendly-ness" to the earth, and environmentalist. "GO GREEN!" ... so as to speak.
What? ... You were expecting that the "guys" would wear all BLACK or perhaps RED? ... Although that maybe, would be more appropriate, considering the "mission" they were on, that wouldn't make an "earth-friendly" photo op.

.... Or did you mean Peterson shirt?
Oh, well, THAT is a little harder to explain.
My best guess would be that after the "guys" were done gloating over all the "rotting" timber that they can "harvest" under the false pre-tenses, that maybe (judging from the shirt) Peterson is leading a "Gay Pride" parade somewhere.
..."Not that there is anything wrong with that"!
