What's up, Fungal Associates?

Welcome to Completely Arbitrary.

This is the podcast about trees and other related topics.

I'm one of your hosts.

My name is Alex Croson.

And of course, we have Mr. Casey clap.

Hiya, Case.

Well, hello, Alex.

How are you?

Casey, I'm fine.

I understand that you have something

you would like to talk about this morning wow I sure will put me right on stage thank you

the roadless rule have you heard about this the roadless rule yes okay yeah it was unconvincing

all right no I know what it is you do um so this, this is a quick aside. I, um, as you should also follow nerdy about nature. It's a guy named Ross Reed. You remember Ross? Yes, Ross. Yeah, we've interacted with him plenty of times. Um, he is, uh, out here in Cascadia doing the good work of telling everyone about all the issues.

And he is so articulate about how he goes about these things.

So he will tell you all the reasons that you're like, man, it's hard to like put my finger on why I agree with this idea.

Ross gives you the reason.

He tells it very well and is a fabulous advocate that I cannot push up enough.

Cool.

Now, he, uh, this morning, actually last week as well, um, has brought up an issue that's very close to my heart that I think we should bring up as well.

It is called the roadless rule.

The roadless rule.
