[email protected] The play opened to rave reviews. Herb Gardner’s career was unusual. He zoomed to early success but then only producing a handful of plays and scripts over his final 37 years. His voice was so distinctive however, his lead characters were so mesmerizing and his humour was so appealing, that he became and remained one of the most-produced playwrights worldwide. At age 17 Herb had a play staged in New York; at 19 he had created the massive hit cartoon phenomenon The Nebbishes (the 1950s equivalent of The Simpsons); by 24 he had a published novel; and before his 28th birthday A Thousand Clowns was a hit on Broadway, earning him a Tony nomination for best play, and the New York Drama Critics “Best New Playwright” award. A movie was made of Clowns in 1965, earning him an Oscar nomination for best adapted screenplay, and the Writer’s Guild Award for best screen comedy. 2,503 Years Old A tourist is traveling with a guide through one of the thickest jungles in Latin America, when he comes across an ancient Mayan temple. The tourist is entranced by the temple and asks the guide for details. The guide states that archaeologists are carrying out excavations and are still finding great treasures. The tourist then queries how old the temple is. "This temple is 2,503 years old," replies the guide. Impressed at this accurate dating, he asks how he knew this precise figure. "Easy," replies the guide. "The archaeologists said it was 2,500 years old, and that was three years ago."

A recent report has said that salvage logging of dead pine is creating large openings in central BC, and that government needs to ensure areas are set aside for biodiversity and wildlife before salvage logging of mountain pine beetle timber clears the forests close to roads and communities. At least 7 very large openings have emerged on the landscape through a series of relatively isolated but wellintentioned decisions about where to place individual salvage cutblocks. These large openings have much less old forest reserved from logging than was recommended by BC's chief forester. The government will have to act quickly to ensure it is not logged as the salvage effort proceeds, and as other uses for the wood, like bioenergy, are developed. BC's chief forester had recommended in 2004 — when the allowable annual cut was increased in central BC to help salvage the dead pine trees — that individual salvage cutblocks should include more patches of mature trees to provide a range of forest types and ages for wildlife and biodiversity and reduce flood risks. A study of an area stretching from Burns Lake through Prince George, and south to Quesnel found that, while foresters did leave more trees standing in salvage cutblocks, as recommended, it did not achieve the desired result when looking at the big picture across the landscape.
