Although I'm not at liberty to post a rather choice response to my opinion column this weekend, I did find out Rep. Mike Jaros (DFL-Duluth) -- aka my new hero -- released a statement on the matter today:
"Many years ago I authored legislation designed to protect the
magnificent old growth trees on Park Point. I continue to support their
protection. Park Point is a treasure that the city of Duluth and the
state of Minnesota must preserve for future generations. Cutting down
the trees would be short-sighted and a tragedy."
p.s. Minnesota Public Radio's excellent coverage of the whole fiasco can be found at: http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2007/01/30/oldpines/.
