Lots of trees down due to the ice storms yesterday. and blocking

structural casualty we found was a guy had some kind of an old garage
behind his house. maybe built in the 20's that an oak limb took out.
The garage was rotten and leaning anyhow. no big loss.

Some of the loggers i was working with, were talking about the new
fuel proposels and they're not happy with it either. Already the EPA
has forced the mfj's to reduce the amount of bar oil which is applied
to the chain to reduce "waste emissions?"

And certain models of Stehl saws are having a problem burning up
chains and bars due to lack of lubrication.

i don't know where the decent middle row is but I'm not liking what
I'm seeing for the future of the 2-cycle industry.

Anyhow, about 6 of us moved a heck of a lot of wood today. I'm feeling
it too!

I've got a small two stroke Poulan 18"er chain saw, but I'm thinking of getting
an electric one. My former neighbor had one, and he could handle most things
around the yard. Also, he never seemed to have a problem getting it started. Any
ideas on who makes a decent one?
