so if you read this page i linked is this the new way we may have to explain being on 4wd tracks or is this another minority greens ploy?
obviously a classroom hypothetical but look at the future it may bring?
no more last minute decisions to just do it it needs to be logged!!!!

Woah, Toony, that's very interesting.
If that's being put into classrooms, and they collected it, and then came back to government and said, "look all the kids said this or that".
It's certainly an interesting class room "excercise" isn't it.

Did DSE say anywhere about keeping the tracks open for fire fighting and emergency vehicle access (in case a walker has an injury)?
Or a 4WD or bike club sponsering a track for maintenance?
Of course, from a vehicle point of view, the tracks coming off the main road need closing to stop potential accidents!
Can't see it anywhere.

A more interesting question is; where do you think all the people coming out of university with degrees in things like Environmental Engineering or Forest Management are getting jobs? Clearly such people will be, generally, lacking in any useful skills so, inevitably, they end up in government - and with a degree in Environmental Engineering they must know all about the bush and similar things so what better place for them than the Dept. of Name Change? Then, of course, as they rise through the dizzy heights of the DSE they, eventually, get to advise the Minister what policy he should be pursuing (because usually the Minister cannot recognise a tree without help) and as they have all been card carrying Greenies since they were sixteen and STILL haven't experienced anything of the real world - guess what advice they're going to give him?
Wave bye bye to the sort of bush access we have now guys - who wants all those nasty 4WDs and rough people in there lighting fires (don't mention the DSE) and doing things in the bush - as all good Environmental Engineering course tell you: "Man is the planets worst enemy". So logically, of course, keep him away from the forests and everything will be alright.
However a _much_ more interesting question is: What are you all going to do about it other than write posts to forums like this?
