[Vision2020] Potlatch (was Immigration or Invasion?)

[Mark Solomon]

Dick,

This just in on the wire

  "The Pulp and Paperboard segment reported an operating loss of $2.4 
million for 2006's first quarter, versus operating income of $2.4 
million for the first quarter of 2005. "A 13 percent increase in 
paperboard shipments, combined with higher selling prices for 
paperboard and increased pulp shipments to external customers, were 
more than offset by higher maintenance, chemical, freight and energy 
costs," Covey said. He added that energy expense, including natural 
gas, was $2.0 million higher than in the first quarter of 2005. "

So Dick, now that the mills are separate from the land and timber in 
a very real way due to the REIT conversion, how long can money losing 
divisions like pulp and paper last? Seems like this is a much larger 
question for folks in the Valley than immigration.
