More on the impending apocalypse...

This well-written but fairly terrifying article came with this morning's Post headlines. It seems that unseasonably warm temperatures have alowed a voraceous pine-eating beatle to destroy a massive swath of central British Columbia forest, an area three times the size of Maryland and nearly twice the annual logging take. Interesting how despite all we're doing to destroy the planet on our own, mother nature seems to be bent on helping us out.
