Hi All;

As a lover of both forests and folk music, I was pleased to learn 
that the video of Bob Bossin's song Sulphur Passage is now watchable on-line:

http://www.bossin.com/sulpas1.htm

The video of the song was one weapon in the long fight to save much 
of the Clayoquot wilderness (in BC) from clear-cutting.  It might do 
us all good to watch this video, and become a little bit 
inspired.  In Nova Scotia there is still no law governing how trees 
are harvested, and with Irving's stranglehold on New Brunswick I 
doubt the situation is any better there.

And there is a readable essay regarding the song's genesis following 
the video.

Or simply enjoy the video.

Yours in nature,
